That's looking pretty cool for a firehammer. nice job

do yourself a favour though and turf those awful shocks in the bin, or at least put the buggy on a plastic bag when storing or you'll end up with shock oil on everything
 
Cool Don....I have a similar project...Smartech traveller.

I will be extending the roll cage at the front too...It looks cool as.

I'm using 12mm solid Nylon-6 rods white....But I'm attaching it to the inner side of the shock towers to keep my cropped down shell, lower.

I also put some spark plug guards.

Good work.

Cool. I had to re-read this because I thought it said "I bought a firehammer roller from a basket case member on here". LOL
 
nope not 4sale on ebay...this is going to be my quiet run around the house car. everything else i have has a ddm dom on it my neighbors hate me....
 
well the body & pipe came today from ddm ( man they ship fast i ordered them wed, night ..thanks ddm ..) got everything on fits like a glove then i found the baja wheels rub the body so i stole wheel extensions off one of my bajas .. they work like a charm..

That looks really cool, I'm kinda new so is that the same size as the Firehammer M/T, also where did you get your adapters for the baja wheels?? I really like the look.
