I am planning on competing. I hope to have the buggy done for it, and WERock next weekend. I don't have much left to do, so it should be very doable, but I will knock on wood to not jinx me either haha.

Thanks guys for the kind words! I need to update my threads, but I am trying to get it finished up for Cedar and OSRC. I need to build the front 2 piece driveshaft, skidplate, and skins, and it should be pretty much ready to go. Some other small finish work to do, but its almost there!

Looks like it is working really well! Hope mine functions half as good as it used too, and I didnt just ruin it haha

Come on out to one of the funnest comps of the year! Held in Delta Utah, at the delta proving grounds, it is a great venue for the whole family to come out and be up close and personal with the action. Hope to see you there!

It was at 112, but with the rebuild I was shooting for 106. We measured it when I had the housing under it to get all the link mounts mocked into place, and it actually might end up around 104-105. Which isn't a big deal for comps, but I am curious how it will do trail wheeling now. I dont...

Oh yeah, that shouldn't be an issue at all. I am hoping to have it done, and down at EJS as well. So WERock Cedar, and OSRC shouldnt be a problem at all (said while knocking on wood just to make sure :D)

I would have to say the most memorable was probably at one of the old sand hollow events, everyone, and I mean everyone congregated at an area for a lunch. It was fun to talk with old friends, family, etc while all sorts of people tried some fins and such in the area. It was followed by...

Looking good! I'll be watching!

Just went through the whole thread... All I can say is wow, there was some scary crap on that thing! I mean, my buggy isnt perfect, nor did I get it perfect from the many many PO's it had, builds, rolls, tear downs, etc. It's not square anymore, and as a result of that, some stuff simply...

And here is where we are sitting as of 3/16: Last Friday I got most of my passenger side firewall done. I got one more piece to make and attach. Got the trans tunnel done earlier, but dont think I ever made a post about it. The shifter is mounted, but I still need to wire it to the trans. I...

Also, HUGE shout out to Mitch at UFAB. He bored out my Ford unit bearings for 35 spline shafts, and got the bolt pattern to 8x6.5.

The chassis is pretty much done. Got a couple more things to do, and weld in, but for the most part, it is finished up. I want to change up a couple more areas in the front of the chassis, but nothing major. Welded up the entire chassis on Saturday. I'm no welder, and its frustrating at...

Before Christmas I cut out most of the upper cage bars, and rebuilt the front upper bar, and spreader bars. Since then, it have been cut in half, and most of the cage is done, and started the rear portion of the chassis. Nate and Ryan helped to convince me that the B pillar needed to be...

This is a much shorter drivetrain than Toyota duals haha

Fun trick I saw, but an easy way to get the pilot bearing out of the back of the crank. Fill the hole with bread, then use a slightly smaller bolt or punch in the pilot bearing opening, and it will pop out. I was amazed at how well it worked, and then the bread popped right out when it was done.

Hey guys! This buggy has had quite the past, but I will save that for the original build thread (everything from the beginning to now) and I will start this thread with what I have done for the rebuild. (Original...

Voted!

Thanks guys! There isn't much left of the original FToy, but it is still one at heart haha. I'll get a build thread up soon.

After a freshen up in '15: And how it is looking currently: I'll get a build thread put up shortly, and maybe a summarized version of where and how it got to this point. Thanks for letting me join!

Just joined. Had some issues trying to get signed up, but glad they got resolved. Here is what my buggy looked like before I built it back in '13: After I got it done:

If that isnt the definition of a raisin, I dont know what is! Thats awesome! Welcome!
