Its hydraulic Chain-drive 4×4, can maneuver about 7 feet up or down on each tire. It is powered by a fuel injected Ford 5.0 V8 out of a ’93 Cobra Mustang, with C4 transmission and t-case out of an early Ford Bronco. The chain drive operates with 9″ gears and ARB air locker mounted in the center body underneath passengers, running chain gears on the ends where the swing arms pivot. “Swing arms are hydraulically controlled individually or together, and there is coil spring and shock suspension as well. large chains running inside the swing arms turn hummer gear reduction (2:1) hubs at each wheel. tires are 39.5″. The steering is linked through the swing arms as well and the steering box is mounted in front of the axle below the driver. body construction is steel tubing (mostly DOM) and the total weight is 5900 LB.”
