    When it comes to rockcrawling, the lighter the rig, the easier it will be to roll over boulders. While full competition buggys have come a long way over the years, we’re now seeing that tech flow over into the recreation side of the hobby. A great example of this can be found with the Vice Unlimited-built buggy you see here.
    Building a competition ready rock crawler buggy, started at the heart. 2.4L ecotec engine paired, to a 2 speed power glide with a 3.8:1 Atlas.
    Vice unlimited chose this set up due to the weight savings along with the power. 200hp out of a 2.4L is perfect for crawling over rocks when paired with a 3,000lb buggy.
    We sat down with builder Tim Odell as he talks us through the challenges and benefits of building a lightweight crawler.

    awesome build!
    Curious: Did you have to run 0.120" wall for the tubing? Seems like you could have shaved a few more lbs with something thinner, which I imagine you can get away with on such a light rig.

    i wonder if a turboshaft can power a rock crawler to go up hill?

    Doesn't look like it performs well. Lot of wasted money. To each their own. ....

      Everyone has to learn skills. Were you born perfect or did you learn to be. ?
