man, he cant have the whole intranet copying his new rig... its going revolutionize the rock bouncing world....

I bet his new ride will have some sort of jet pack on it. :. I'm glad you kept your kid buggy a secret. You know that thing could have been copied too. For real though if guys are copying your badass **** and building it in their garage with a Jd squared manual tubing bender a framing square and 4" grinder, you might want to rethink your fab skills and get a little more creative. If your a great fab guy, your going to have your own personal touches that most people can't copy, and that is what makes your rig unique.
Hell, I ordered drawings from AZrock crawler to help get mine proprtioned. If I had to build it with no sort of guide line it would look like a freaking box.

I personally see no reason to re-invent the wheel unless you are tryin to make a name for yourself fab wise or your penis is small and unsatisfing to wimmens laughing1

If you built it yourself, you got ever right to be proud. That isnt an easy task, with a real job and a family.

Got a little work done this weekend. I finished rebuilding my transmission and transfer case. Got both installed. the trans case went in through the back as designed, but was a bitch. It was alot easier when it was empty. The trans goes in from the front before the engine is installed. I didn't make anything drop out of the bottom. I can still get to the pan and all the bolts , but the bottom is solid. Mounted up the trans cooler, it goes under the passenger seat. The shiftter is on the upper console and the cutting brake is located between my leg and the shifter. I had to cut a few inches off the brake handle so it would fit under my dash when I engage the front brakes. I figured the back brakes get used more than most so I made it easier to engage them instead of the front. All the mounting holes are lining up nicely so far I'mvery glad for that. The engine should be ready to drop in by the end of the week. I took alot of various pics so enjoy.

Is this a good Idea. I am putting quick disconnects on my trans and my gas tank. The thought behind it is when I pull either it will close off any fluid from coming out plus keep debris out as well.

This is how I built 85% of the tube frame. I bought a set of plans from AZ rock crawler. They don't give you every dimension , but it helps alot with set up.

air switch and mini regulator for arb. The regulator is preset so it can't be changed. I'm running my arb off co2.
