So... issues so far:
-Slowly destroying my last spur gear while I wait on the gears from Badd.
-Front driveshaft was popping off... due to my ass tearing backing the upperling rod end thread out
-THESE WHEELS FAWKING SUCK!!!!
Cant wait to get my wheels from Josh. I also couldnt wait to drive this thing. I took some video, theres 1 good hill, and a bunch of failed attempts and breakage. But a ton of mud slingin if anyone wants me to put it together.

Looks like fun!!! No matter if Im tearing stuff up or not, when theres that much mud flying you cant help but have fun. Those tires look like they may perform better without the extra sipe in the lugs. They would at least move more mud/dirt IMO.

Better video!! Vanquish wheels and boggers on the rear, baja claws and shitty prolines upfront. True southern buggyish!

Great action and looks like a ton of fun.
I love the rear tire sidewall wrinkle at 1:57.
