I'm thinking about starting to gather parts to convert my buggy over to a kingpin front end. I drove willies buggy with the longer arms and whatnot, and it drove really nice, soaked up all the bumps, etc. Of course, I didn't think anything of it then and didn't really look at anyone's setup.. If you guys could post some pictures I would appreciate it. Is everyone running beam adjusters, or just twisting them and the longer arms? What about the spindles, balljoint spuds? Don't kingpin spindles have smaller tie rod end holes? Thanks in advance.

BugZyla.com has arms to convert BJ to LP without changing the beam. 2.5 X 1 = 369.00 . Others are also available. Check them out.

yeah, i'm thinking more along the lines of cutting up stock arms and making them, a lot cheaper, plusssssssssssssss, i want to keep stock shock mounting location, because I don't want big, ugly shock towers on my frame...
