Building a turnkey rock bouncer takes far more than assembling parts. In this episode, the Wide Open Design team walks through the assembly process of one of our newest Rocketship chassis builds as it comes together for display at the PRI Trade Show.

From a bare chassis to a completed turnkey buggy, this video shows what it takes to build a modern high-horsepower rock bouncer the Wide Open Design way.
