Project:Raven Racing Resurrection

[Busted Knuckle Racing]

I have been helping a neighbor put together a buggy that was previously built and run in Uroc by Harrison "Crash" Beene of Raven Racing. We pulled the chassis and axles out of the barn over the weekend and got them all lined up where they should go. The specs on this build are as follows:
Raven Racing Chassis
4.3 Vortec
TH 350
D300
16 inch Air Shox
14 Bolt rear narrowed with disc conversion
D44 front narrowed
One link rear
3 link front
Hydraulic steering
39.5 tires (still looking)

pics as it sits now:








We will probably be putting the motor in place and fabbing motor mounts starting next week, then we will start on the rear suspension, followed by the front. Our goal is to have it complete and tested by Feb Frenzy.

Well, the SMJC swap meet was good timing... We sold the 12" coilovers and picked up a Dana 300 with adapter for the TH350. The UPS guy has delivered a box full of various tabs, heims, and bushings from Blue Torch Fabworks. I also just ordered some 16" Fox 2.0 air shocks and they should be here next week. Hopefully I will be posting some progress pics soon after that.

How do you plan on charging the Air Shocks. Did you order the kit or do you plan on charging them locally?

we have the parts to make a kit, or, if that fails, Joel Whithers has a charging kit I believe...

I got the Fox Shox in today. Man, these things are BEEF. Very nice!
