Sorry but the system will not let me add any more pictures due to system limits.

Only on here...

Being that this is a LBZ Duramax powered buggy, I elected to post it here (with a little push from Mike L.) Only a handful of people knew about this rig until now. I have enough pictures to do a complete build layout but have only posted a few on here for you in the diesel world. Too many of the other sites have too many people that think they know how the world works. I am not into that.
If you would like to see any part special, I most likely have a picture of it. I know there is no other buggy out there, yet, like this one. Thanks for the comments.

It is not too far from starting. I will find a way to post a video once it rolls on its own.

The cooler for your hydro steer. What is it and where did it come from. I need one for my buggy. I like how small it is. I'm in the process of swapping mine over to propane at the moment.

The cooler came from: pscmotorsports.com (as did most of the steering parts.
The steering wheel will operate the factory radio/CD plus on star.

So the steering looks like you have it set up to just turn the rear opposite when the front turns. Is that the case or am I seeing it wrong? Maybe a valve so you can swap it to crab or not at all too?

steering?

There is a joy stick just to the left of the steering wheel. If the steering wheel is held still and the stick is moved right the back end turns left to push the front end to the right. If both the steering and the joy stick go right you will make a very tight circle. Being left handed, a left control felt better for me.
