[QUOTE="Red97, post: 600939, member: 12467"] I know I can't be the only one to debate this. New chassis vs rebuild [URL=http://s882.photobucket.com/user/josephis09/media/20160612_160957.jpg.html][IMG]http://i882.photobucket.com/albums/ac23/josephis09/20160612_160957.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Currently have this lil pos. Bought it just as you see it last year $1200 175k 1.6 8v 3 speed auto gm hydro assist. Spooled 5.13 axles 4.24 t case 89" wb 21" belly 76" wide 35" baja claws So far it has done everything I have asked of it. Sucks for steep climbs/ledges and front leafs kill the approach only 2 seat. Currently building some upgraded axles. Plan on making an adaptor to run a toy doubler on the 3sp auto. Have all the stuff to convert to full hydro steering What I want is 105 wb 18" belly 80" width 35-37" tires linked and 4 seat rear mainly for kids/ short skinny people. From those that have been in this position before, should I just chop up what I have (firewall buggy)? Or keep it wheel able build a new chassis and swap needed parts over? Which way is actually quicker/easier to accomplish? Thank you. [/QUOTE]
