Looking at building some kind of off road buggy for something to do in the garage, Can anyone recommend a place that sells A-arm and suspension parts or gear that I may be needing to make this thing. Cheers

I'd see what pickapart have got, there may be a van you could get a double wishbone suspension out of suitable for attaching to a tube or box chassis.

Autolign have a large range of new parts.Owned by B&T so could be NZ wide.

Cheers. Maybe a wrecked quad will be the way to go for the suspention or something similar

If you want to go fast up the beach build a pirannah. If you want to go in the forest/mud/up hill, check what I have on offer. Quad bike parts are dear because the farmers will pay anything to get their quads going again and cowshit rusts them hard.

#1 it is best to go and check out the places you can use what ever you decide to build based on your budget and the offroad conditions. Beaches can be classified as public roads or have council speed limits etc.

Many quads are written off in good condition when the farm worker backs a tractor over the front half or back half.
