All up it will cost about $8000.00. I think it may cost you in the US a bit less as I buy most of my parts from the US and ship them to Australia. The hole buggy has is my work and design I hope it works as it has a lot of new ideas I like to do new stuff but some work some do not

Now that is some articulation! 
Is the single airbag going to be enough to keep the wheels planted at speed?

Sweet!
Nice buggy. Rear engine gives great visibility.
That looks like some excellent fabrication there.
What kind of suspension? Are you going to use coil-overs? It looks pretty low now without springs.
Good job!

thanks the buggy is set up to go slow top speed ia about 30mph,the air bag is for suspension the rams you see on the diffs one is for steering the 2nd one is to control articulation front and rear are the same the transfer of oil keep the buggy level, it can also be powered so you lean into a hill if needed
