Pikes Peak Rovers Range Rover Rock Buggy
This hardcore offroading buggy was built from a 1990 Range Rover frame with stock rear a arm and joint, designed by Rock Ware Motorsports.
It’s powered by a 4.6 liter Range Rover engine tuned up by McCabe MotorSports, hooked up to a stock Rover transmission and LT230 transfer case. Both front and rear shocks are Fox shocks, with 12″ 2.5 shocks at the front and 14″ at the rear. Wheels are 17 inch wrapped with 40 inch Goodyear MTR tyres.
Enjoy the two videos after the jump.
