thats pretty cool...how long were you planning on the buggy or was it an just something you started one day
I have been collecting parts for about a year now.  At first it wasn't going to be a full on buggy, I was going to use the s-10 cab and tube the back with some airshocks. But then I got this sweet deal on the 18" coilovers and then I was going to use just the s 10 frame.  Then I was just going to use the front half of the frame so I didn't have to build new motormounts.  I cut it all down to start one day and realized that that was the most stupid idea I had ever had. So..... I decided to go full buggy.
Right now I am waiting on the hiem joints for the front links.  QA1 is apprently back ordered untill july 9th. So untill I can get those to check engine clearances, I am kinda stuck. So I have been working on the front 60, installing the chromoly 35 spline stubs, drive flanges, and figuring what kind of locker I want.  As well as building a truss for it that can house the upper link mounts and also serve as a mounting point for the hydro steering.
