The FireBug goes rear steer!
By admin | July 14, 2008
…well, I finally caved in. Got sick of those tight parks down at the shopping center, so decided it was time to add rear steer to the FireBug.
Solid Axel Industries built a Dana60 steering axel for us, and ABT4×4 and CTM helped out with a set of indestructible CTM shafts and uni joints. Steering cylinder and valving etc from POS, and all installed by Pip at Just Customs. Works a treat, and can’t wait to get her out on the rocks and have a play!
Just customs also straightened out the chassis after a big year last year, and added a bit of re-enforcing to stiffen the frame and enhance safety (you may notice all the new tube work). Also a few other little tweaks and tricks…
Still no word on when the competitions will kick back off, but we’ll be heading out to do some social wheeling and get some seat time pretty soon. Will be sure to post up some pics and details - maybe video - after we get out for a play.
