The only things from the "old" one I am using is the motor, but i freshened that up and added some go fast parts, the rear end and the tires and wheels and winch. The rest is new stuff. My old chassis was 3-4 years old, time for a fresh start. Some bling should show up tomorrow {Grin} I will post a pic {Wink}

Will you be able to get the valve covers off without the header having to be removed? Looks close but its probably just the pic, I'm sure you didn't have alot of room to work with. Awesome job Dan!!!!

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By TROUT (fishmouthfabworks) on 18th Aug 08 at 7:42am
no you cant. you must sacrafice things to have some other things the way you want. there is not very much room. the driver side is kicked farther forward to keep away from the pedals. there are lots of things that have to come out to get to others. thats the way small buggies are.

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By HOGAN (hogan) on 18th Aug 08 at 3:53pm
Fair enough, awesome none the less!!

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By HOGAN (hogan) on 18th Aug 08 at 3:54pm

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By T-CARP (admin) on 24th Aug 08 at 9:32pm
No didn't get it figured out, I have no clue what the hell is wrong, I am so bummed I am bout ready to give up on this thing {Cry} This sucks I am really doubtful I will even get to wheel this year at all..........we noticed that on the headers only two of them were gettin hot {Confused} I don't know whats up hopefully you will see something I didn't or something {Unsure}

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By BigToy (bigtoy22) on 25th Aug 08 at 10:05am
no worries ill put some time on it to figure it out. soemthing just isnt hooked up is all.

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By rockcrawlinredneck (rockcrawlinredneck) on 25th Aug 08 at 12:41pm
What is the idle problem you are having? I had an idle issue and it turned ot to be a simple vacume laek that was hard to see. A little hose came off it's port.

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By BigToy (bigtoy22) on 25th Aug 08 at 2:26pm

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By HOGAN (hogan) on 25th Aug 08 at 3:20pm
If not all the tubes on the headers were getting hot you should check each injector connection to see if they are pulsing with a test light, then check to be sure each cylinder is getting spark . I get my night scheduel today. I'll come by my next night off and give you a hand if your not rockin by the time I get there. {Cool} Don't Give Up!!!

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By T-CARP (admin) on 25th Aug 08 at 10:23pm

Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By T-CARP (admin) on 28th Aug 08 at 8:56pm
Well its a no go, too much to do and not enough time time to do it. I built the transmission and messed up something up in it so it has no reverse, and I let all the smoke out of the wires also {Rolleyes} so instead of trying to go up I am pulling the tranny on friday nite and taking it to the tranny god (smurf) on sat and then throwing it back in. I may cruise up in the superduty on sunday to hang out and eat some tacos. So the NEXT deadline i will try and make is the last calrocs event in sept.

I swear come hell or high water I will wheel this f-ing buggy this summer wheeling season!!!!!! If not it will go up for sale. I do not want a snow wheeler I would have just bought a damn snowmobile acctually 3 of
them {Rolleyes} So a huge thank you to everyone who helped me try and get this thing on the trail! Dan, mike, and Tilton esp! Sorry I let everyone down {Sad}


Re: T-CARPS Buggy build thread! - Posted By jiMMythejerk (jimmythejerk) on 28th Aug 08 at 9:06pm
That stinks. but better to not rush and have more issues though even though im sure it is a bummer. It will be running in no time though. If you do not make the next cal rocs that does not mean summer is over. Drag it to moon rocks or something. You will wheel. No selling it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And i have also put my share of work with grinding, gear oil changing 2x which is not my fault it leaked b/c the guy gave me the wrong silicone, and running around all over sac picking up parts, pizza, and last minute registration, so i will be damned if this buggy does not get done My dear (trav) and Mr. trout.

Are you running offset spacers inbetween the coilover tabs and the coilovers? I only ask because my front coils were setup very similar and the front wheel under full compression and heavily loaded up would break coilover shafts in half from binding in the tabs. Just trying to mabey save you some $.

there is no binding. the tabs are 90 of each other. they cancel eachother out.
