gotta say i love this site !!! i am in the process of converting my vw powered rail in to a water bug. i picked up this rail for like 500$, i cant tell what kind it is but it looks a lot like a berrian. to the good part i am removing my 1641 dp and dropping in a volvo b230ft, the donor car is an 89 volvo 740gle. we dynoed the car and it put 135hp and 155tq down at the wheels. the car only has 54000 mils on the motor so every thing is real nice. i am mating this up to a bus trans axle with 930 conversion. I debating on tires !!! i want some tractor tred tires but i am having trouble finding them, so i think i wll buy some boggers. what do u guys think ??? any advise i cant get going into this would be great !! ,,, also i wanna load the torsion bars and lift the rear end , any help or advise here ??

what type of riding do you do,,are you into hill climbing mostly or trails mostly? Boggers beat on a tranny,,so if you go that way beef it up good or take it easy. Vtreads are much lighter and grip very well too,,,good luck
