amazinblazin10 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 So I bought a 4-seater dune buggy back a couple of months ago and I am fully restoring it. I hope to have it completely done and on the streets by next summer. It's gonna be a long process but the end results should be amazing. I wasn't for sure where to posts this, only because I have never seen a topic such as this here on the forum. I hope this will be a topic that everyone will enjoy reading! To start off the dune buggy! 4 seater dune-buggy that came with a 1600cc dual port motor. Got to stripping it and this is what i got: Noticed that the rear torsion was just complete mangled and needed to be replaced: So the only thing i could do was to cut it out of course! Got guard dogs protecting the dune buggy! 1997 Dodge Ram Van 2500 Big III addition with 1/0 awg wiring all throughout Lightning Audio Strike S4.1000.1D Jenson XA2250 2 - 12" Mtx Jackhammers JH55 3ft cubed box sealed under the rear bench seat Pioneer DEH-P6000UB head unit MB Quart FWA 160 components up front

amazinblazin10 Posted September 8, 2010 Author Report Posted September 8, 2010 Picked up a new torsion, tranny, and motor for $100 Stripped down the torsion and prepped it to weld back onto the buggy: How else can i move the buggy without a rear end underneath it? By putting it in the back of the truck of course! Spent a lot of time setting it in place but sure enough i finally got it! Fortunately I know a friend that is a professional welder so he helped me out a lot with welding it back into place, it's not completely welded in there yet but we got it enough for i can get it sitting on all 4's again! After working on it all labor-day weekend I finished up with this! 1997 Dodge Ram Van 2500 Big III addition with 1/0 awg wiring all throughout Lightning Audio Strike S4.1000.1D Jenson XA2250 2 - 12" Mtx Jackhammers JH55 3ft cubed box sealed under the rear bench seat Pioneer DEH-P6000UB head unit MB Quart FWA 160 components up front
