what you guys think of that. i think i am going to try and pick it up for the frame, my buddy needs a 6rib, and my other buddy needs all the steering lights etc... so spliting it all up we'd have about 400.00 a piece. 1000.00+2-300 gas for pickup

he said the frame has a type 2 bus torsion and stretched wheelbase to 101'

o also he said the frame is 3 yrs old and has never been completed.

Personally it looks like a lot of scrap metal to me. The type 2 bus torsion is not the best to use from my understanding. I dont remember the reasons why so somebody else will have to answer that question. Based on his comment on it needs to be rewelded tells me that its probably not in straight to begin with. The rack is crap and depending on how he streached the frame it could be a death trap. I have seen too many frames "butt" welded with out sleeves put in the tubes (including the buggy I just bought). With the trans being painted it has probably been used in a buggy so you dont know what your buying. The bottom line is "Buyer Beware" Just my 2 cents

thanks steve......thats why i post shit on here hah

yea im with you I had rather start with nothing than that frame you know if it was not welded all the way it is gona have water inside and be rusty and that rack wont last 5 min on a woods buggy. The trany is all that I see thats ok and there you are takin a chance

I guess Roy wants it

hah yea just saw that

I really don't want it but I am going to look at it this weekend in person to see what it really is. If I do buy it I will weld in a type 1 torsion housing and the frame will be back up for sale. I will post it here.

the rack is junk, tell your buddy hes better off with no steering, that way he wont be stuck in the woods till 5 in the morning!

RIGHT!! There was some major engineering that went on to get that buggy out of the woods.

yes, very major. ahh all in good fun, atleast i got to make 3 new friends out of the experience! (dvs1) dave, jason (RidgeRunner), and roy (volksdude2007) are all great guys to go buggying with (and in general), and three of the best woods engineers i know!

McGiver is their cousin.
