I've attempted to compile a list of where all the parts on the buggy originated from. I have taken parts from 6 other cars, some i still own and some i don't.
i consider this collection of parts to be the best i've had on one vehicle.
it took 6 cars with few good parts to make one off road car with all the good stuff.

4 Bilstein shocks, 1 bilstein steering damper
