| Let's see them tube buggies!
Like title says let's seem them tube buggies. I'm not talking stockers like the capra or bomber but some legit custom home brew tube chassis buggies. I'm wanting to build a class 3 all wheel steer "simple" W.E. rock buggy. I say simple cause all of my buggies start out simple and wind up over complicated. The first few pictures are my most recent buggies, the black one is a class 2 buggy on vanquish geartrain, the white one is a class 3 buggy on capra geartrain. I'm thinking something more military for my next one, and shorter wheelbase.

Cool buggies! Here is the class 2 I am working on. I am designing and 3D printing the axles, cage and chassis rails, skid, transmission and transfer case, and interior. I am trying to save weight where possible. I am currently working on designing the axles. They have the TRX4 remote locking diffs, under drive gears in the front and rear, GRC high clearance portal knuckles, and I am trying to get BTA steering with SOA (this part is tricky). |

I like where that is going, on my capra powered rig I used a modified hammer transfer case behind the rear dig and used it to solely drive the rear axle, this gave me rear under drive and it also rotates the driveshafts reverse of each other, I was able to flip the rear 3rd member upside down to accommodate this change in rotation. The best Part is there is no affect on the dig. The capra axles a really light and offer a ton of clearance, the only draw back is they are nearly an inch wider that 10.2 axles.
