Ill have headlights pre Harlan no worries there at all... Probably go ahead and put the taillights hung out back as well at a min just to keep from getting rearended. ( plus I think the tall skinny cadi lights look cool )

Having tailights won't save you from a little "rubbin is racin".
 
Need:
Steering sorted out (slow react)
Starting sorted out (I think I still have a wiring gremlin, she is hard hard hard to start, but fine once warm)

I am tired of slashing BFG sidewalls, so options...... Maxxis? I loaned Josh Murray my tireplug kit, only to realize two minutes later that I stabbed a wall as well.
Need to paint rear axle, install breather accordian deal.

Have a front balljoint needs replaced.
And I want to send my Atlas back to have it mod'ed for Front wheel drive High range.

It is probably just your orbital. Maybe your pump. Call Lance at PSC and get it done. Tell him I sent you and that I said hook your cornpone ass up.

BFGs......dunno man. I see them both get cut. Think about a little more air maybe?

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Trepadors. No way I would swap a Krawler for a Crawler, but damnit man, that Trepador is a dead ass sexy tire.

Why front wheel drive high range?

I'll get with PSC for sure, we talked about it all weekend. I was ditch to ditch in it, and steering under hard acceleration, NOPE!

I had just aired down 2 psi when I got that rim, and I hate it but I have no idea where it happend on course, no idea at all.

40" treps are dead sexy, and SOFT!!! I groped a few, and cop'ed a couple feels.

High range front. My atlas is one of the old ones that doesnt have that feature. I want it for crusiing around. Like to and from the pits, long stretch high speed stuff. It would help with steering as well. High side rear only at speed is not as easy to steer. Might not touch it though if I get my steering dialed in.
 
I'm pulling down mine and start over on a new weekend buggy sowe i have a long way to go plus keeping up whit the race buggy.

he meant 12 psi that we aired down to before that run. DOWN to 12.
 
Well, I was out in the shop tonite making the CSC (Cole Shirley Corner) and decided I would write down what all I have left to do to my buggy. Got a lot of parts just need time to work on it. Not as bad as I though. :dunno:

Build motor
Build Transmission
HD outputs for Tcase (Dana 300)
Yokes all the way around
Driveshafts
Locker for front
New hubs for front (actual wheel hubs)
Drive flanges
Mount Brembo 4 piston brake calipers
Tires and wheels
Motor accessories (bracketry)
Finish center console
Steering (already have D.E. Ram)
Springs and Spring kits for coil overs
Prolly a few things I'm forgetting.


Not alot of stuff but prolly the most expensive.
 
That doesnt sound too bad. Alot of plumbing and wiring will prolly take some time, but fairly inexpensive compared to the other stuff. Keep at it thumb.gif
