monstaru Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 it would be really rad if it was done in it's infancy by then at the basic stages ,to be driven and not broken. i am hoping to have it done by the show,whenever that is,unless it is like june! hopefully on a good schedule i will have the fabbin done by the middle of june(my b-day)and drivin it by the end of summer succesfully. then just add stuff i want as i go. you going to have this ready by august? i'm planning on a weekend campout at naches and rimrock area. which vehicle i bring, depends on if the yota is done.

86BRATMAN Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 well disregard my statement about the yota frame length, the suzuki frame picture didn't show up when I looked at them the other day... Makes much more sense now:headbang: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstaru Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 i am awaiting expert advice as to whether or not the toy frame is bent.when that is determined, i will know what i am doing. i got the motor all prettied up with everything except a carb.should be hitting up on one of those really soon.am really leaning towards just using the whole toy frame if it is not damaged. better approach and departure angles with it. i mean fabbin is fabbin ya know. gonna end up bein a damn buggy lookin thing by the time i am done with it anyway. cheers, brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monstaru Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 yota.i am currrentlylooking into the possibility of using an old school spicer 18 transfer case and and t-90 trans.i have a bellhousing for an old 6 cylinder motor that is just the right size for adaptation to an ej-22.it is pretty crazy actually.extremely stoked about this because the gearing in the spicer 18 is low as ************.i'll get pics soon so which frame did you decide to use? the yota's or sami's?
