backhalfing

full tube rear with coils,4link...........etc....................

 

[Paul]

I've seen several on Pirate.

 

[STOMPER]

Why not call it what it is and ask if anyone has built a 1st Gen Truggy. But yes Pitate has them.

 

[ATLRoach]

That would be a tubed tail or tube dovetail. That is the plan for mine with just the sides pinned to the tube. Chopperman on Pirate had exactly what you are looking for.

backhalfing

Thats the dumbest term Ive heard in a while. :kewl:

 

[Bear]

I am not tubing mine, but do plan on putting links in the rear this upcoming spring. Don't know if I can help or not.

I would check the link you got from the pirate board, I always find valuable info over there!

 

[Full_Tilt_Fud]

Since nobody will buy mine it looks like I will be keeping and doing something like this............I wanna stretch the wheelbase out to get rid of the rear overhang and improve the departure angle (I know I could bob it but I don't want to go that route).

 

[chromerunner]

thanks for the links

that is a proper term he is going to backhalf the truck...i understood it maybe it isnt a term where your from but i have heard it

 

[STOMPER]

I still say part truck part buggie = Truggie

It's not a truck so does that count as a 4Ruggy? or Suggy(SUV+Buggy)?

how does backhalving, in any way, describe what is going to be done to the truck? Just doesnt sound right. Id give it credit if it had a neat ring to it, but it doesnt even have that. It sounds retarded.

How bout "tube the rear" or "tube out the rear"? "Chop n' tube"?

"cab-back"? :dunno: re-chassis, tube chassis, de-frame and re-chassis?

Im going to "de-frame and tube re-chassis the backhalf cab back", there ya go, that has a nice jingle to it. :flipoff4:

Ok, Im having too much fun.

soccermobuggy?

runnuggy?

Fuggy but spelled 4uggy?

or 4ruggy.

Muggy for mall buggy

Sluggy would be fitting.
