Those look interesting, but look to be Samurais basically! The whole Light Jeep attraction is they fit in the back of our Tundrs pickup, and these bigger ones will not. So, if I cannot find what I need, I'll build it. I got another hour or so work done yesterday on the buggy. Built a jig to hold the front forks in place while I remove the head tubes to get the old frame pieces cut off, and new main frame sections welded on. Layed out where i need the cuts to be, and took the GC drive axle apart to see if the short and long sides are interchangeable... they seem to be! This is good... By 10:30 am it was 110 degrees in my little steel shed... nice!
