Ok so I am looking to buy a new frame and am not sure what to get. I like the truck style frames but am not sure if that is the best way to go or not. I am looking for something with more room than the frame that I have now ,it will need to be a 2 or 4 seater. Also I want it to climb well, the one I have now climbs great.

I have a 2180 motor that runs very strong, dry sump system , 6al box, 6 rib trans, 3x3 rear trailing arms and extended front trailing arms also four racerunner air shocks. I am looking for a full welded frame, I will ad extra supports and bracing I Also would like to put a custom torsion front and rear witch would eliminate the torsion bars.

This is the frame I have now anyone know what it is I'm not sure.

Are you going to replace your current frame or build a new buggy?

What do you mean by "More Room"... Do you want more head room? Do you want more arm room? Did you want more room to store stuff?

yes I am replacing my existing frame. and i would like more room in all the places you stated. I would like to have enough room to to put suspension seats in. also the reason that i was looking at the truck style frame is for camping trips and things like that with the family then i could take a large cooler, tents, sleeping bags and so on.

the main thing i want room for are the suspension seats and a good place to put the oil tank for the dry sump witch is mounted in the front of my buggy now and i have oil lines ran over a 7 foot run to the tank and i want have the tank mounted behind the seats and maybe room for a room for some small speakers.
