| tuber or truggy?
i was thinking of either building a comp tuber based off of my jeep cj body that i have design wise or getting a proline chevy c10 truck body and building a truggy based off of it. just wanted to get input on these and see what guys would like to see more.

I am always confused about these terms; truggy, tuber, etc. As is my understanding, a rock-crawling truggy is a truck cab/frame, with the rest of the chassis being tubes, with/without rear fenders, etc. A desert racing truggy is a buggy frame with a truck rear suspension and big truck tires. The 'tuber' name is a little more confusing me. To me a tuber is anything with a tube frame; full body, dovetailed, truggy, etc. What I think most people are calling tubers are what I would consider 'rock buggies'. |
