Default RE: 2wd beach buggy

No no, no half measures here. I am going for the full enchilada! I have the 2wd bulkhead and most of the 2wd bits sorted off ebay. Its the fiddly little bits and the single speed stuff that is holding me up. I was wondering if the AE 2wd stuff fitted because the LHS stocks tons of stuff for the buggies and stadium trucks. It would be well handy if the RC10GT spurs and slipper fitted.
For tyres I have a set of ribbed fronts but I am going to pick a set of pinned tyres rather than the paddles. The reason for this is so it handles ok on grass aswell. Not sure what pins to get yet but I have a fondness for lugnuts. Should give a nice rooster tail of sand!
I am also fitting bushes rather than bearings in the wheels for obvious reasons and I am trying to knock up some 'mudguards' for the inside of the body to keep the sand away from the delicates!
