Always jumping to conclusions I see smoov... He actually owns his own business. He also has many other project cars on the run. And I highly doubt it would be running standard CV's and axles... There are these axles (driveshafts) you can get in the US that can takes loads of torqu at even 30 degree angles... it's all been discussed on usmb...smoov wrote:must have shares for a CV shaft manufacturing/reconditioning company...
thats no longer a fun car. thumbs down in my books.
if you want something that big, buy a hilux. else you better like fixing things every other day!!

OK, so assuming this Brat has these whizz bang space age driveshafts (which I can't verify even with a good scan of the USMB).
What about transmissions? The DR 5 speed can't like all that torque and only heavy load on the rear drive gear. What about the transfer cases too? Turning those giant tyres can't be easy.
I remember asking on the USMB a while back what these guys do for suspension, and the answer came back STOCK. Even on a 12" lifted Brat!!!
