Post some pics when you have it going. Looks like you will have fun with it.
 
Body build ur own. 😁 pre made body’s are no fun. Wait what am I saying?
 
Thank you
You need any help we are here. I’m probably not the smartest on by all means but someone will help you out. Go get that thing dirty damn it😁
 
Ok so I’ll say this in any rock crawlers. You can have a suck winch. Pull your front down while doing a vertical. Basically called squatting it. Helps with not flipping over. So the lower the front acutely give you more travel.
 
Can’t wait to see!!!
 
Here is another tip you can buy these on eBay brass wheel weights. I haven’t tried them myself but thinking of buying some. So a lot people run air pressure I would say 7-12 pounds in tires. Just for traction , also will run beads or even water in there tires. Don’t run water on steel wheel. But what it dose is like a weight balance for the tire. Little tip for you all 😁
 
Is the front suspension independent? I'm curious to know what vehicle this is as I have never really seen this before.
