Parting Out 2007 Joyner Sand Viper 1100 Converted to VW Power


Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone,

I made the costly mistake of letting a friend of mine drive my 1100 Sand Viper a couple months ago, and ended up with a cracked frame. I was already planning on moving up to something bigger, so this was the tipping point.

I'm parting out what I have left. I had converted it to VW power (1915cc), so many parts have been modified to accommodate VW parts and may no longer work on your stock setup. If you're interested in switching over to a VW setup, I most likely have the parts you'll need and can answer questions regarding what was done to accomplish the conversion.

I'm located in San Diego.

Here's a list of what I have:

Suspension

King 2.0 Coilovers with remote reservoir (set of 4 with all required hardware) $1500. Details as follows:

12" travel

Primary spring rate front = 150 lb/in

Secondary spring rate front = 150 lb/in

Primary spring rate rear = 300 lb/in

Secondary spring rate rear = 300 lb/in

Droop = 40%

Drivetrain

VW 002 IRS Bus Transaxle set up for Type 2 CV's $700

Axles (custom to accommodate VW drivetrain in Joyner) $100

VW EMPI Type 2 CV Joints (2) $50

Wheel and Tires

2 x Swamp Lite Tires (Front, 27x9.00R12) $75

2 x Radial Reptile Tires (Rear, 27x11.00R12) $50

2 x Vision Buckshot Wheels (Rear, 15”x7”, 4/115 4 + 3) $50

Miscellaneous

- Starter (VW 002 High Torque) $100

- Full set of Gauges $20

- Fuel Tank (Spun aluminum) $50

- Chassis $50 (cracked where passenger side trailing arm connects to frame)

- Boxed Rear Trailing Arms $200 (these are much stronger than the stock trailing arm configuration and have been modified to accommodate the VW drivetrain)

- Front Hubs, Rotors, Brake calipers, lines, new pads $50

- Rear Hubs and Rotors (VW) $100 (note that the rear Joyner hub mount assembly had to be machined out to accommodate the VW hubs, and the rotors were drilled for the Joyner lug pattern)

- VW Disc Brake Kit for rear wheels $150

- (2) 15 x 7 Wheels $80 (Vision Buckshot Model, 4/115 4 + 3)

- Shifter $25 (Bugpack T-shifter)

- Steering shaft, wheel $30

- Light bar frame $30

- (2) Seats with Harnesses $50

- Aluminum hood panel $40

      The conversion took about 350lbs. off the vehicle.  It never rode great, but now I feel every  crack in the road.  I have backed off spring compression nut to the point just under where they would move around if suspension was at full extension, but it is still very stiff.  I would like to put some softer coilover springs on it, but I have no idea what the spring rate is with the original springs so I would just be guessing on what to order.  Does anyone have the data for the original spring compression rate?  I am willing to give up a little ground clearance for a softer ride. Right now when sitting still the rear suspension is at or near full extension and the rear tires have several degrees of camber which will cause uneven wear if allowed to continue in this state.

      Hi Joyner Gang
      New to the Joyner group. I'm making long travel for the 1100 Sand viper. I'm trying to make something that will work as well or even better than the RZR Rino etc. At this time the front has 14" travel rear has 16" of travel. Still developing the suspension. comets are welcome. Ask questions and I will get back to the Forum 
       
      ?

      I'm looking at picking up this UTV and this is what the owner says:
      "All I know about it is it runs. Display does not work and it will not move! Front end or trans could be locked up. It moves some, but does not sound good."
      My question is, what could the moving issue be, and how can I check it out when I look at it? I feel the price is right at $2000, but I'd like to know what I'm getting into.
