    The drunker I get...

    you know the feeling...

    The drunker you get the more wild the ideas and the more bullet proof you become....


    So IVe decided...


    After many years of fantisizing Im going to build a Series based 8x8x8.. just cause Im drunk enough to think i can......

    Kermit can go sit on the back burner..... acutually kermit will probably provide the donk and primary gear box...


    straight rail chassis...

    2.25disel pushing 2A 4 speed on a SIII tcase driving another pair of SIII tcaes to 4 sereis 4.7:1 steering axles, Hydaulics from a Hq powersteer unit to give the back 4 steer ability and a centeral crossup steering systm for the front 4 (maybe hydraulic havent got that nutted yet) Camelback tpye suspension with panhards for location on the front set and the rear set.


    or maybe a half track......
