well i got sarge to start after he had a bad oil leak also i upgraded the rear gas shocks on the parents van to some new monroe shocks and i got the old factory gas shocks well lets just say that they are busted you can push them in and they wont come back at a closer look there was a few rust wholes in the top but i got the idea that when fearles lifted the front of his crawler he used some kind of shocks i think ill do the ssame but ima use some big ass shocks lol it should be a sight here is my todo list and it will get done
*do a full rear lfit only 6" and do front lift 3" *get some new rear tires and some front tires *add some big ass front shocks from a 1994 chevy G20 sportsvan *find a new engine *redo hood so that you can open it from the front like a truck *get a new engine pulley *"maybe" get a winch *get a new battery

I believe Fearless used old gas shocks that you see on the rear hatches of some cars. Their purpose is to more or less slow down the travel of the front axle, so be sure to get some semi-dead front shocks if you use big ones or else you might as well have a locked front end.
forgot to say this but i did put the old strait pipe on sarge the new one i made well lets say its to big :l and im out of welding wire to make a mount to support it ummm i did redo the brake pivot arm s i can like barley push on the brake pedal now and it locks up the rear tires LOL its like super strong bt about me rambling on about the brake pads i have some from my car (the red ford in the video i drove by) but there no usable there beond worn down
