Moving a Superbug
Can anyone tell me if a superbug can be moved around minus its engine and gearbox. I know a swing axle bug needs its gearbox to wheel it around, but
unsure about a Super with CV's?
Thanks

If the axles are still attached, they will need to be removed or tied up in the air (at about the same position as where the gearbox flanges were) at
the inboard end. This will prevent them from flopping around and the CV's falling apart.
