    Build Big Green Buffalo Build Thread

    Just one piece of advice, if the vehicle is in motion keep your arms inside at all times! Do not reach out side the vehicle for any reason, even if it is tilting. Easy for a limb to get torn off, crushed or snapped in half. Please please keep your windows up if you can't keep your arms inside...

    ??? Anyone can buy that steel. You or I can get it for maybe $150-175. Maybe less I can't tell thickness. You need to step your game up and look for better sources.... Look for local metal suppliers, you can get hell of a lot cheaper than big box retailers or online. The prices I mentioned...

    Good luck going into home depot or Lowe's and buying a 22 ft section of 1-3/4" .120 wall DOM tube. Good luck buying 22ft of DOM online for $88.

    I second this comment! I really wish I changed mine but was time constrained. I decided against doing it because they were unfortunately rusted to the point where once you touch them there is no turning back. It would of been quite the task. Since they were not leaking and not currently giving...

    I am super suspicious of those eBay ones. It was $88 for a 22ft section of 1-3/4" by .120 wall. It would take all that and more to create those. Then if you factor in labor cost and profit.... Doesn't add up.

    They are all the same size (can confirm 94 is same as 97). Probably 20 years of crud in them though. They likely need cleaned out, that was the case for me. I think they were M8x1.25.

    I highly recommend building your own, its a fun intensive project! Take a welding class at your school or local college and ask to do this as a side project! Cost is much cheaper as well. I built 2 sets, one for a 97 one for a 94. I believe it was right around $440 for 1 set (paint not...

    Media Official 35" and under!! Post pictures!!

    I went 35s stock suspension for now. Read different things here. Figured it depended on each person's skill level. Just went for it as I know I could easily make adjustments afterwards if I needed. The guys at the tire shop laughed at me. I told them just do it. Left them with their mouths open...

    stupid oil pump cover screw omgwtfbbq

    Impact Driver works great, doesn't strip it. If you have a stubby one it fits in no problem. You will laugh at how easy it is afterwards and wonder why you never thought about it. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-24-Volt-Max-Variable-Speed-Brushless-Cordless-Impact-Driver-1-Battery/1000604923...
