I saw a rock bouncer comp in TN and lot of guys were running this busted knuckle built rear .... BOMB proof copy as you see fit 1800 HP supercharged slamming into boulders at 50 mph LOL never saw one break someday I hope to be able to afford the elegance of portals till then... nice welds BTW!

how are you mounting the seats? I struggled with this involved tacking and cutting off mounts a few times a third arm would have helped. ended up doing a pseudo copy of woodys method

man that thing is clean! Perfect

man that thing is going to be nice

man when I was looking at chassis this was a serious consideration saw one at KOH 2022 and fell in love with it looking forward to seeing it come together!

Man that is one bad little buggy! Awesome work what do these smaller portal rigs weight?

ah there ya go, I diddnt know it required frame mods.

I know guy who knows a guy who runs portals with this chassis so I know it can be done if you can manage to reach him he responds best by text or email during business hours he may have an answer for you... Its a pet peeve of his to be bothered during off hours (tip)

I have space under my moroso trans pan for rocks the size of a large grape I know because I have a remove them every time I go wheeling had to go with that aluminum pan and their rubber gasket freaking cork...couldnt get it to stop leaking / weeping

this is how he does the rear engine mount at least for an LS3, pic from Pauls shop

pic of drivers both are same

so these are Pauls mounts I had him weld in as part of the chassis build. I bought mine all welded up. He also put in TH400 mount locators that were spot on so.... both mounts. Front bottom mount bolt center is right in line with top of chassis tube which puts top front of mounts 2" above...

If you zoom in there you can see the mounts sit maybe 2" above the chassis tube. I can measure if it helps.

other thing ...you engine looks a little low. At least compared to where Pauls mounts put it

Heres a pic I took at Pauls shop this is the way he sets them up. cuts that front main tube to allow ORIs to fit I used 2.5 kings and mine just barely clear so I was glad I diddnt have to make this modification. But you may.

wish your build was a couple years earlier to use as an example it was a real challenge to figure out how to put 10 lbs of poop in this 5 lb bag. I think I re made the seat mounts half a dozen times. never run a two piece front shaft and getting that pillow block in the right spot took a few...
