We did not make it this year unfortunately the car wasn’t ready but rest assured we will be there next year! As far as my new build goes, I started a chassis 2 weeks ago, going 5.3 th350 and dana 300, super duty axles that I’m going to cut down and swap the front to passenger side drop and ever since seeing clippas old cj buggy I’ve always wanted To build a RHD buggy so that’s the plan for this one!

I'm sure you have a reason...but why flip the axle and not the case? Seems like a ton of labor.

Flip kit is 1000 bucks I can flip the axle for wayyyyy cheaper

Neither did I until I started looking. Cheapest I could find was 750 before shipping.
