I would second tedo's recommendation. I just got a set for my Buda build and love them. In fact this rig inspired me to come up with my 1.9 caged rig |

Thanks Bret, your builds and skills have made me push my builds further. I will pick up some Pitbulls but it's gonna have to wait. In the meantime I would to get some opinions on a few things I've been toying with. First off, who thinks I should cut off the tube fenders for the dove nose look? I will have to come up with some new body mounts for the hood but it's not a big deal. Second, I've been thinking about cutting the body panels off in front of the rear wheel opening to show a little more tube work. Any thoughts on those two?

It looks perfect the way it is! If it were mine the only thing i'd do would move the front axle forward about 1/4 to 1/2 inch.

Thanks Jay you've been a big inspiration to me and my tube work. Well I'll be making new panels so I decided to cut each side differently to get a feel for each idea. Last edited by rckjeep; 02-27-2012 at 09:10 PM. | |

I watched his rig being built over the yrs, it's gotta be tough to give it up as it has turned out really great and crawling capability is awesome. Take care of it And hope Dave can build another soon. I will miss seeing it on the rocks. |
