I want to know if this is a stupid idea, the idea is to make a forward control out of a 110 chassis with more modern brakes suspension 5 speed gearbox and an engine (undecided) does anyone think it would be possible? Would be a pickup back so back would be custom made

anything's possible. Remember forward control layout is a lot different to a 110/90/anything else.

For starters the engine is behind (?) the driver. So you'd need the layout to be completely changed. Not sure how all the gubbins that connects to the engine works

Looks like a fun project. Would be cool to do one on a 6x6!
