[no excuses]

I am at 115" and it works good but when I build my buggy it will be around 106-108". I am just tired of 100 point turns lol.

 

[Boonie Buster]

try 125":fawkdancesmiley: :haha: and the turning radius of a small soccer field. somehow i manage to get through stuff without backing up, in places where others have too:wtf:

IMO 105" is ideal, for my build, given the size of my body I went with 107" for the best aproach and departure. I think 115" is a little long, but just use you're best judgement on what is going to benefit you the most.

what do you mean by sectioning the cab? like chopping a foot out of the whole cab? less? would the rear doors work still? if thats what you are talkin about then yeah that would be extra cool. flatbed and move rear foreward?

I'll end up around 115ish on my build. Should work out just fine

 

[Fullywrecked]

My last rig was 116". If you don't care about what it looks like it works great, but the turning radius is not that desirable on tight trails. I will be 108-112" with my next trail rig.:beer:

 

[megatoy66]

I'm at 121"................longer is better!! :fawkdancesmiley:















At least in the big rocks down south. :kissmyass:

 

[cameron_garrison]

what imean by sectioning is just like bobing but to the cab taking 5-8" out welding the rear doors shut and moving the axle to right behind the cab and tubing out the back . does anyone know if a tubed back half is street legal if i have the proper fender coverege im at 131 right now and im tired of having to back up and crap to make turns.

 

[Dain Bramage]

as long as you have fenders and mudflaps of some sort it should be fine.

my truck is at 115", i think it is a little long, especially considering that i love tight trails, but i really dont have much of a problem most of the time with it, if i do, i usually only have to make 3 point turns.

As long as you have flaps and some tin work over the top of your tires you should be all right.

 

[jeffs88toy]
