"Southern Styled" & "Don't Judge" Double Florida Style Swamp Buggy build

The bumper is on it because it's a counter weight that's why it's so far forward it's because I have a 7ft long 6ft wide deck and well when I put all my stuff on it and it rolls that's probably gonna be the piece that saves my behind

how do you keep from rolling them over sideways on anything other than flat ground? not being a jerk, just truly curious?

The wide offset tires

I also made my deck wider then my wheels just by a little bit and if it rolls on it's side the bumper and deck will keep it from flipping

Any input on what we could add ?

I guess always bracing. Id improve steering, make it bullet prof. Improve clutch and maybe pulleys.

I have full metal pullys and my frame is boxed I'm deffinelty stiffening up the steering and suspension I thought about running a double clutch so I get more grip going threw water since I'm putting about a 3inch pully but any ideas help because these are truly gonna go threw water over the engine so I'm doing strait pipes out the back lol

Red, the decks and uprights aren't done yet we still have to put more uprights in still have alot more bracing going into it

And exhaust and wiring and painting a lot left to do

And I'm using 1 1/2in exhaust out back to a honda recon 250 muffler, I should port and polish it and hop it up a little. QUESTION!!! How much can you jet one with getting the best power and throttle response out of it, it's a briggs and Stratton 16.5hp """HIGH PERFORMANCE"""

Personally is put a atv carb on it K2500. And i realize they arnt done just saying conduit isnt the most solid material but will work. What kind of deck material are you using?

Ply wood and I want to but I don't have one

I would brace the crap out of those spindles on the one with the atv tires.

Yea both are gonna be braces cause that the other one is getting atv tires too

Here's some of the bracing still got out rights to do but atlest it's moving along

Hey look it's me in the garage working on my foreman lol

The deck is mostly in just gotta add the front ladder and rails but the bracing is done so next stop is the deck and rails

while it isnt my style of a build, im glad to see you guys having fun doing it. Nice.

That isn't how mine looks though he went with the old style and I went with the new show style
