I’ll try to send a pic from my cellphone of the progress so far later on, I have all four tires mounted, I had to make ring adapters for the rims to fit to the 6 hole rims, and here is what I also came up with on my own, you see I am head mechanic for a concrete batch plant, I have tons of parts available. I took all four whell hubs which are identical front or rear, you can even turn them around to change the offset, I punched out all the 3/4” wheel studs and using a three step drill process I drilled up to the size to set in 1 and 1/8th inch steering axle wheel studs using Budd left and right hand wheel nuts.

Every place I can I have beefed up everything, the buggy is being built to access a remote gold mining camp out in the bush. We don’t want it to break down period.
