V8 Lexus buggy mods

Post by petefj40 »

Thought since the mods don't stop on the buggy I may as well start a thread for it.

Mods since buying it n August are.
-Water proofed dizzies.
-Re-build starter motor.
-Alter engine mounts to get motor level in engine bay.
-New winch motor.
-New coil springs for a softer ride.
-30 spline Longfields

Off the top of my head. Not a lot done really which is a good thing.

At the moment the rear radius arm mounts are being scraped for new ones. And once finished it should track nice and striaght. Because it was crab walking. Only due to the arm mounts not being welded to the chassis straight.

Mods I'd like to do:
-Fit supercharger
-Fit snorkel
-Fit tube framed doors with drop nets

We'll see what happens next year. :wink:
