You got to remember I am going to have a bumper on the back of this too. Its about 6 inches longer then the stock rhino set up.

I originally wanted to build a buggy, now I kind of have both.

I might as well call it a Ruggy

I have seen that before as well.

At the moment I have a 1500lb winch that I am thinking of making a rear receiver to slip it in if I have too.

but most places I play I always have another truck (dunes) or other ppl (quad riders) when I ride to help if I need reverse.

I may make it street legal so I should be able to push it if I would really have too.

Word of advice if I can help with anything........Sit in your seat first and see what kind of lean you want in it.

After 8 design changes, I finally got the mount I wanted.....well I didn't put the correct angle in the seat and it felt like I was riding in a bench seat

I now know I want 10 degree of lean...

lets try again

Let me know what you want to give me R1 Rhino and I will see.

I am not giving up on the project, just no time right now to work on it. I am getting ready to buy my first house so all my "project" money is going towards my new project called washer, dryer, tv ect lol.

If Someone is interested in the engine I will sell it with everything for it to run. I guess I could hook it up quickly so ppl can see it run.

The project still has a ways but really it just needs front a arms made, axles and seats mounted. I just ordered the heims and stuff a couple weeks ago.

If it don't sell look for some updates this winter when it gets cold out here.

To tell you how bad I want to sell it I don't think I will even make a for sale thread lol.

I do have a KFX400 and King quad 700 I would like to sell or trade as well.

Me and my GF have been thinking of racing GNCC UTV class and have been thinking of running a RZR or building up a Rhino 700. But dont matter to me really as I can buy one later if I want. I am not going to take a complete loss to sell the project but am not looking to make money
