74fj40

Time for update. I've been driving to work and back for a some time now. All leaks and niggles are sorted. Turned up the injection pump a bit and boosting 16psi. She runs on fumes, cant believe how little fuel this engine is sipping. Power is...

My buggy runs the WARN RC9, the replacement motor was made in China, warranty direct from WARN. The 9.5XP on the 80 has worked excellent for over 10 years. I've had two ComeUP winches that have worked flawlessly. The 24v 12k on the BJ74 gets...

Just make sure you get a higher end warn. The low end models are all chinesium. My vote is for a 9.5xps

Looks great. Can’t wait to see some flex photos. Side note, did you consider mounting the arms on top of the axle?
