Damn that looks sweet!  I saw some pics of a 1:1 Iceland built buggy that had those double cardan type front axles. They have some crazy steering angle.  |

I think they look pretty awesome so far. I know you're gonna bring something far out! I'm just gonna be using my "old" SW2. I'll atleast be the highest finishing American!  |

Awesome!!! You might have some trouble with the tires hitting the links though! Great fab work  , do you have some kind of a jig to keep all those parts strait when welding them up?

this is a really great start! I'm curious to see how you are going to get the links on without the tires rubbing them. I like your knuckle packs! this is only the second 2.2 I have seen with knuckle packs. x2 on watching this thread! |

What a unique rig. Can't wait to hear how this steering is gonna work. A front dig with that would be some serious turning |
