This thing is gonna be a BEAST! Lookin' forward to seeing it buttoned-up and painted. Also looking forward to seeing pics of it destroying and launching through any obstacle in it's path. Keep'em comin'!

Do you have any plans for the rear yet? Im trying to figure something out for mine but no one makes decent springs for dakotas, i saw that someone on dezertrangers used a deaver f31 pack from a ranger and moved the the front spring mount back a little bit, but i dont know how good that would be

Oh ive got plans for it but the front has to be finished frist. deaver told me they can make a custom pack that will fit my specific needs for a decent price. probably go that route with deavers and a bedcage and call it good after that and just have fun in it

Well update. Barstow was a blast. Got some great videos of the racetruck. My rear couldn't keep up like expected. So plan has changed from leaf pack to now linking my rear. Going all out now. But here are some pics of the trip and I will post the videos soon of the miller raceworks race truck

We tried to weigh down the rear with some tires and it didn't help that much

My truck and the buggy that came out with us
