Reason for no front brakes is the weight. Under power you can’t steer effectively. You use turning brakes to turn on a dime. Plus it’s added weight you don’t need. You can easily add front brakes if you drive on the street a lot. This is the ideal set up.

I know nothing about vw motors but I bought a sandrail and wanted to con art it to a mid engine for better weight distribution. After turning the motor how did you reconnect it? How not go backwards?
@mymini9115 ай бұрын
you just spin the motor 180 degrees, the motor will only spin one direction and the firing order is still the same, nothing changes, just the position of the motor.

Hey, sorry to bug you about these type of questions. I’m actually looking for a buggy that almost exactly fits this description. Is there a certain type that this is called it being mid engine
@mymini9114 ай бұрын
yes it is called a "Mid engine"!sandrail just like you said. If you want to build one you need to make sure it is a mid engine frame as well, as obviously it won't work.

You don’t need them, especially in the sand. Still stops excellent since car is so light, you will just skid.
