Go Kart/ Buggy on truck axles?

[gear monkey]

Can you put say samurai axles under a buggy? Is it possible and has anyone done it? Any pictures?

 

[mckutzy]

Yes... Anything is possible....

You won't be having a clone powering it though.

Wanna know an easier way? Buy a whole Samurai, remove the body & replace it with a custom buggy frame & cage

Or....you can just buy a Samurai, and paint the word "buggy" on both sides of it......

dont know abut most places round the world but the suzuki 4x4s in western Australia are appreciating faster than houses

a good standard samurai will fetch 4k easy

a an early 200s jimmy will get 10k easy
even though they weren't much more when new

although all older 4x4s are getting quite alot
a 1980s fj40 series landcruiser will get 6k


and american trucks cost a **** load for unexplained reasons
a 2002 f truck will get u 15k
but to import a new f 250and get it converted to r/h drive will cost u 130k

i have no idea why because theyre woful off road unless u drop an extra 5k into them
