Well, I have sold 90% of the parts, including both trans, the pan, trailing arms, skid plates, seat bases, IRS jigs. Still have a hand full of items, including the complete front link pin beam with adjusters.

For the last 20 years, I have been collecting stuff to build a 2nd buggy. It was to be old school, with rgb. I will not be doing it, so need to get rid of stuff. I have pictures, lots of them, but dont know how to post them. Small nut rgb 's and trans, Needs nose cone. The trans looks fresh, came of...

I have used Herculiner do it yourself from Autozone on the sides of the buggy, as well as the inside floor pans, and it has held up great over the last 11 years, I have touched it up, not a big deal as you can roll or brush it on. I have also sprayed over it with clear, when it got dull over the yea...

So, on the stainless steel lights, is all of it stainless? including the mount and hardware? I find that on my chrome ones, its the mount I cant keep from rusting, the bucket itself is easy enlugh to keep waxed. 

I had a bug that did the same thing, turned out to be the front tires were badly cupped and unevenly worn. Had a Chevy Luv with same thing, was cured by balancing the tires with a machine that could do it with the tires on the car, not sure if that is available anymore. My sons Jeep Cherokee did the...

Thank you. I also found some information at Socal Baja Bugs, as well as Socal Broncos, if anyone else is interested.

taking some friends to big bear, and will have a buggy and a jeep, and want to explore some trails. Would love to do the trails that we did during the Big Bear event. We did the advanced run. Does anyone know what those trails were? I have one of the freebie maps the forest service hands out, but I ...

So since you are replacing the trans soon, maybe a "freeway flyer" type of trans, with the higher 4th gear ratio, might give you a slightly higher and more comfortable crusing speed, without changing the lower gear ratios? 

Are you running a bus trans? or is it a type 1?

I had hoped that with taller tires than stock, and maybe with the type 1 trans, the top speed would be more along the lines of 70 mph. I had a '65 bus that had reduction boxes, its been a long time but I seem to remember a top speed in the mid 60 mph range. So with the reduction boxes, did it seem O...

so while at Big Bear, on the red run, there was a buggy with bus reduction boxes, as well as lifted front spindles, it was a blue buggy, and I briefly spoke with the owner. I would like to find out more about this kind of set up, as it seemed perfect for trail riding, as well as mild rock crawling. ...

We were part of the red group which was 35 buggies in all, so between breakdowns and difficulty of terrain we were spread out quite a ways.  My friend discovered that my wife's camera can take short videos, so here's one we made.
