I decided to go a different route on the front end. I got it all tacked up today.

I have the shock mounts, and upper a arms fabbed up. One of the brackets looks crooked in the pic but that was just the camera angle. Now I have to build the lower A Arm brackets and make some tie rods and the front will be done. The A Arms are all adjustable so I will be able to tweek the front...

I built some heavy duty shock mounts and got the 4 link all mocked up. I just need to weld a panhard bar to keep it from moving left to right. I also started building the front mounts for the a arms. Ill get some pics of that part up when I get home tonight.

I pretty much have to make an entire new sub frame because I found out there is a butt load of rust.

Sorry about the delay in progress I'm in the Army and have been super busy. Plus I have been working on a mud buggy alot also I got some more work done Ill try to get some pics up within the next few days.

Yes I am gonna build a full role cage.

I started cleaning up the rear portion of the frame so I can weld all of the brackets on. I also pulled off the floor board pad and discovered an assload of rust. I am just going to cut it all out and have to re fab all the sub frame part that the seats and plastics bolt to.

I cut out some 1/8 inch plate and started fabbing the 4link mounts that will attach to the frame.

Here are a few pictures just to see what the general stance of it will be.

Here is one side with the shocks mounted up

I got some 1 1/4 DOM tubing and some heim joints they are pretty simple just weld the bung into the tubing. This is pretty much how it will all mount up, and yes blaster hubs fit perfect on the buggy axle.

I picked up a set of Polaris Sportsman 800 rear shocks. They actually mount straight up to the old golf cart mounts, but I will probably have to cut the mounts and move the more towards the center of the rail to fit the more narrow axle mounting points.

I got the axle brackets partially fabbed up. These are rough when I'm done with the rear suspension I will clean everything up.

Ok sorry about the delay but im getting hot and heavy now that I have some free time. I got some work done and will get some pics up today.

I have a few bottom ends where do you ride motoman i just moved to kissimmee. I was thinking maybe the clutch basket is hiting the case cover maybe something isnt seated right in the clutch.
