what about a bugyzla conversion Surprised


Considering their website domain is for sale. Owner passed away about a year and 3 months ago, son sold most of the remaining inventory off a couple months ago, so good luck with that. Also unless I'm missing something a bugzyla simply converts a late model Ball joint beam car to accept the more desirable in a baja link-pin beam. Still not an A-Arm conversion.

Here download a user manual and memorize it, then get back to us. After all I remember a woman once told my father and grandfather who had been dairy farmers all their lives and at the time had one of the most modern setup ups at any Wisconsin family farm the because she read a book on raising cattle that she knew more about farming than they could ever learn from doing it for 50+ years. Maybe you two are related.

If you would listen to Dusty he did a rather good breakdown of them to another member a while back.

Stock arms are ok, need to be beefed up to keep to keep from bending
A good set of 3x3 are a lot stronger than stock arms
And your question about 1 inch longer arms is a trick question, it all depends on c.f. type, axel length, shock placement and length, type of stub axles. Without all the info it can't be answered . It will cost you $200 to $ 400 for every inch over stock travel you want to go.
