Re: The FSU trail buggy build
got the trailing arms built, still need to build the upper mounts
no fancy tig welds here. did wrap the end bushing as i had to cut and sleeve the link to extend it
parts for the front drive shaft showed up, will be 1410 cv shaft to 1410 joint at the steading bearing.

Re: The FSU trail buggy build
rear bump stop mounts, have 1/2 inch of clearance between links and bottom of fuel cell
put my efi back on the motor to see how my intake was going to fit. will be able to run it right back into the dash area but will need a small cowl on the hood to cover it
welded all my links and link brackets up and was able to take the buggy off jack stands and roll it around at full bump

Re: The FSU trail buggy build
finished up the front drive shaft. its all 1410 ujoints so will be nice and beefy
can now really see how much of a clearance issue i have with the header, still think i can cut the header back and make it work
rear shaft is all girth no length as its 1480 joints and 3.5 tubing but like 2 feet long
