If this buggy was used in the mud, I would suggest checking the thickness of the tubing walls while you are reconditioning. I recently found weak tubing walls that rusted from the inside-out. 1) Flip the buggy onto it's side. 2) Using a welder's slag hammer, tap around all of the lower tubing that was facing the ground horizontally. This is where water collects inside of the tubing. 3) Water also collects in the two vertical tubes that connect to the rear main torsion housing. All offroad frames eventually fail where the frame members connects to the rear torsion housing (from rot). |

Got everything done but the brake lines ran, doing that today, started it up with the new heads and carb and it screamed like a raped ape! But for some unknown reason the rear seal is leaking oil bad so I have to figure that out. Here are a few pics Posted using the WoodsBuggy Mobile App
