Domestic Violence III

Wheres some updated pics of this thing Todd? I know that he has to have made some progress on this since Thanksgiving.

Buggy is looking awesome, cant wait to see it out on the trail once the weather gets um, less wet.

As always, impressive work James.

Hi Sean. I haven't been over there for a while. Probably this weekend I'll get some pics.
 
He's begun on the small, tedious stuff so progress won't look like much.

Battery mounted behind the driver seat, trans cooler behind the passenger seat.

Spidertrax axle shafts arrived. Top notch stuff. Being used with Longfield joints.

Holy Orbital valve...... When you are building something that is this compact you really have to think outside the box. I have to see how tight this frontend is in person.

Mounts look top notch on the cooler and the battery James. I know just how much time the small stuff takes.

I like seeing how he has learned from every car he has built over the years. Making things tighter and tighter and smaller and smaller.

Couple more pics of the battery and trans cooler with the seats removed.

The Art Carr shifter was cannibalized so it could be narrowed up to fit between the seats better. Right behind the shifter is the rear steer control.

Why no cool rear steer "bull-bar"? :looser:

I wondered the same when I saw that on Pirate. Seems like that setup is the way to go for rear steer. Perhaps not wanting the added length in hydro lines and valve that far forward....dunno
