My Monster rebuild

[Fluidocs]

Hi guys!

I'm from Switzerland, 29 years old, andd I own my FG Monster Beetle Pro since more then 4 years. In the meantime I changed or replaced almost every part of my babe. Not only because it was necessary, sometimes just for fun or just for the "bling bling" effect.

Let me show you my main rebuild 2008. Costs? don't ask me that!:nono: I'm sure my Audi A6 4x4 1998 got the same value...:helpsmilie:

Have fun, specs and the final build I will show you at the end of my posts.

Greetings to all of you!
Sven

yeah, the old fashionated diff...I said to me: I will change it when the sh... comes out of it :2guns:4 years old my diff...

lets continue...

rear axle with brakes. There are some things I dindn't change to "bling bling"... as example: A rollcage in alloy isnt a good idea...even if is looks really cool... I let some piece in plastic just because of the fact: " Where is going on an impact all the energy, when the whole thing is made of alloy? I learned that I need a few parts in plastic to protect the whole rest, even if the look with all the alloy istn't that nice...
