ill just let you know B.... getting the truck to drift like that will be a task if you are not familar with suspension setups and are able to do your own fabrication. I dont wanna rain on you, but its not straight forward

B-Turbo

hahah wow.....i wont be doin that.....lol...i like to keep it simple as far as body..... would be sick though!



ik ......thats one thing i really need to get into before i start this....now that ik the motor(easy part ) im gonna use, next is to figure out the suspension and how or what i need to do. lol u didnt rain on me.....me starting this project did haha after readin and talkin wit people i realized this is gonna be a tough project for me because idk about suspension as much...... im willing to learn all i can and figure out ways to do this...im not afraid to custom make anything...i have little welding expierence but im always up to learn new stuff.... i wanna learn how drift cars work and what they need to make them do the crazy stuff they do.... point me in a direction to learn more if u want...i will prob read it or call someone to learn about it....

well to learn to drift, you don't need power and you don't want to start with a truck brother. check out the drift section, you will be able to read up on techniques etc.

the best thing about it man is that if you buy a motor you can just throw in the back of the truck and take it haha wish a 240 could do that

shaban

yea but its a pain and you have remove **** and make sure **** dont get dirty and its a pita to remove the motor from the inside of the car. the truck can just do it on a spontaneous whim no need to plan or remove anything.
