Boxboy's build

[boxboy]

As some of you may know I have been building a buggy over the last 4+ years. Before S&N closed I acquired a custom bravo , originally I was going with a 5.3L Chevy but it was bad so I picked up an LQ9 6.0L from an 03 Escalade. I paired it up with a turbo 400 rebuilt with a manual valve body K case then put a atlas2 4-1. I had the Dana 60's and the coil overs from my old rig but went through then and freshened them up they have 5.13's cromo's and Detroits. I picked up a PSC power steering pump and kept the double ended ram from the old rig.

added more stuff and all that technical stuff that I really have no idea what they are all called I just welded **** together and hope it works...

Picked up trail ready HD's and some krawlers.

Then paint... I hate painting to much over thinking...

then started assemble

you know you get a lot done and then you realize you have no wires, hose side panels, fluids, nuts and bolts, or even a clue as to what to do next...

Thanks to all the people who helped me a long the way there are many at different time but the best advice from them all was to just do something on the project everyday.

Yeah I started that years ago so I just kept adding to it as it really has all the technical info in one place.
