Thanks for the offer but i have one of them adjuster thingys that make so even i can do it also 2x3s and stock bars single shock set soft but it still dont ride as good as c/d. And i am not trying to argue with anyone darn sure dont have to be king of the hill I appericate any kind of mechanical marvels for the lack of a better word, some of the rockcrawlers are impressive to me so how ever you take it is fine. you think about it and the soft susp.is one of the reasons they perfom so well but thats just my opinion

If you will notice the picture of curt's buggy with the bags down then look at a picture of it aired up look at how far the buggy moves. That's travel way more than a long travel rear sand car certainly more than you will ever get out of a sway-a-way anything my last buggy I had a 10 in over tortion with adjusters SAW tortion bars 25 in SAW axels 930 joints cromoly 3 by 3 wilwood brakes fox long travel shocks the difference is night an day I know been there done that

Notice the chain hanging down from the trailing arms. It goes from the pivot point to the rear axle. CD is the only way to go if you want to climb extreme hills.

I may be biased but, I fail to see the opinion. If you want to climb extreme hills CD is the way to go.

[quote='kybuggy1']CDs are impressive at jumping up a high wall or something. If thats what floats your boat, then more power to however has one. None I have ever seen look like they would be more fun to ri

Curt
I gotta end this rant sometime or another, so I'll try to get to it.

Calling you a dickhead was just a poke, after complimenting your ride, I had to say something or I'd look like a kissass. Thats why i put the little " :twisted: " in there. Everybody else calls you one, why cant I :twisted: ? And you did act like one to me in Livingston, when I was starting and my buggy was a POS.

As far as other buggies sucking, its a relative term. Mine sucks next to Bruce's, Mark's, or Darrel's, Charlie's, Lewis' or many, many others. I didnt mean any copy CDs sucked on their own, just by comparison, from what I've seen them NOT be able to climb. (It did sound like something you'd say, I needed to check myself, I reckon :twisted: .) I've said a million times, they are all cool. I would NEVER belittle someones ride, unless they were CONCEITED. My favorite thing to do with buggies is helping new people get into it. There is a difference between pride and being conceited. I was just as proud when I first built my 1600 3 rib heavy ass two seater as I am now of my new one, maybe more so. Because I assembled them both, with the help of good friends.

I never said your buggy couldnt turn, I said I didnt think I'd like one for having to cut back and forth up a steep hill. You cant tell me a vehicle that prolly weighs twice as much as a little buggy, is longer, wider and taller is gonna dart and dive like they can thru a tight climb. The CD's I've been around just have to make their own path sometimes. And some of them can do that and I cant. Nothing wrong with that, but I like the technical aspect of trying to follow the same path where the last guy just went, or seeing if he can follow you. I stated that in the next sentence of my original post.
Their size would also make it difficult for me to even get to the woods. I will have to take two buggies nearly every time I go from now on, and soon will be needing to haul three, plus I dont like to sleep in no tent, so I gotta bring a roof, too. Thats something people getting into our hobby forget to consider sometimes.

Thanks for the offer of help. I gotta see how many times she's gonna cuss me over it before I commit to her an auto. I may do it yet. Plus , it would free up a decent 6 rib for my son. And yes, you did eventually answer the questions I asked when this forum first got going, before all the blow ups. See there, you dont have to be despised :twisted: . Now admit a KYbuggy was faster than yours on that day in AL, even if the climb was easy :twisted: and you shouldnt have been a dick to Mark, ever!

Larry

Curt would not even pay Mark the bet they had on the hill climb on who would win.
