69 baja bug beast for sale. Registered street legal. It was a fun build, but our family doesn't get out enough anymore. Some details:
Cage, A-arms and trailing arms by Tyler at TNT Fab in Ventura (known for his truck pre-runners)
Build up by Todd and crew at HRT Motorsports in Ramona (Brandon Arthur's father and crew chief)
A-arm front with 20” travel.
8x8's on rear with 30+" travel in current setup. (with CV's it would need to be limited to around 24")
Chevy Traverse electric steering (not powered in yet)
Ford 2.3 with 3T turbo set at very mild boost (-9 lbs) dyno'ed at 160 hp at the wheels.
Caged front to back: driver/passenger area is 1.75x.120 wall DOM. The rest is mixed .120 and .090 wall putting more where strength is needed.
Suspension seats front and Jeep CJ rear seat. Crowe 4 point harnesses front and back. Rear seat moved back 6" for more passenger leg room.
Roof rack - super stout (easily carried enough for weekend camping with my family of 4). Mounted hi-lift and shovel, as well as Jeep XJ radiator for max airflow.
Needs:
Gussets welded onto rear trailing arm pivot. Drives as is, but I wouldn't recommend rough stuff until added.
Otherwise, besides little tweaks to fit your likes, it's ready to go!
