Wizzard    I like that setup,                              

That is pretty close to what I did on the swamp buggy.  I welded 3/16 wall tubing to the old axles and moved the hubs out about 12". the "outboard" bearings are mounted just below the coil over shocks. It is part of the rear bumper, swing arm, motor mount.

How about  a few more pic`s  of your swamp buggy . I`m  looking for more idea`s . What did you do for your front end ?  How about posting a tread on your build with pic`s ,  I think that would be help alot of us new builders out with idea`s.  

got everything done and took out for a test run, everything works great. now i gota get the front tires balenced and mabe some kinda steering stabalizer. she gets a lil squirly at hi speeds

The shop is kinda full right now. I got 5 I need to finish this week. I will bring the buggy in and take it apart to get some good pics

pic`s always help   

Thanks
