Should be a nice buggy Mike, I was recently thinking of a doing a buggy with alot of the same parts you have mentioned. But i know it would snowball and i would end up taking 2 years to build it and 30-40k so i will continue to wheel my truck till it dies.

Haha yea man. the body wasnt too bad, just got to the point where I didnt want to put a cage, winch, efi, new trans and tcase in it when I still wanted a v8 buggy on tons that could do front digs.

I have a lot of desert racer buddies that get deals on coilovers, so probably either fox or racerunner.

Your truck will last, that thing is built perfect!

Im sure it will be a 2 year build as I have another project goin on. besides the red truck haha. Max budget on this one is going to be 15k, though I would like to do it for 10. I plan to buy as many used parts as possible and build the chassis myself, with the help of some good good friends.

I already have the motor, and can get the trans new for $600, I have the gauges, seats, radiator, and a few other parts to sell/trade so that really helps.
