Newbies Post Up Here - Rig Specs & Info Thread

hokie_yj · Dec 23, 2012

I've been lurking for a while now, i guess it's time I introduce myself. My name is Ben, I live in Surgoinsville, TN, about 1.5 hrs East of Knoxville. I've been wheeling since '05, started in a little stock '94 Yj. I sold it in '08 when it looked like this.

For the last few years I've been wheeling this little buggy when I've had time, which hasn't been very often.

It's a worn out old comp buggy, but it still does ok.
Specs:
4.3 on propane
700r4
3.8 Atlas
'03 SuperDuty 60/10.5 4.56s, welded
37" Trepadors

And this is my current project that I'm gathering parts for.

It's an SXOR rear engine single seater chassis. The parts list should be something like this when it's done.

Either 5.3 LS or SC 3800 V6
Powerglide
3.8 Atlas
Flipped 609s
39" BFG reds on Stazworks beadlocks

I've met and wheeled with a handful of people on this board, and I'm looking forward to getting to wheel with more of you.

Sorry, i missed your question. It is a SXOR chassis, It's been in roller form for several years, and passed around a few times, but I intend to finish it and give it the beatdown it deserves. :driving:

I have a build thread started on another site, but there's no real progress yet. I'm still gathering parts, but when i get started on it I'll post a build thread here.
