I've been working on my buggy design for, well, a long time.
Finally got around to starting it.
What I've collected so far:
97' 350 Vortec w/ 4L80E, painless wiring harness, other parts from the truck
2 Front Rockwell 2.5 ton axles
Random electro-hydraulic valves and electronics to run them
8 1" heims from ebay that don't look too quality...
A pile of tube for a chassis
Will get:
NP205 (a couple leads right now)
Probably 47 LTBs
Coilovers
More heims, and link tubes
So far, I've got the rockwells dissambled, soon to replace a few missing bearings, new boots, etc.
Bought government surplus, somebody had robbed the hub bearings:
Cut the bottom off:
Redrilled the holes for the rear rock:
