Well a truggy is basicly a buggy with monster truck tires and a monster truck body.

Sometimes the truggy will have either wider suspension arms or extenders on the axles to make it wider overall. With the larger tires you usually have to go with a larger spur or a smaller pinion to offset the different final drive ratio, too.
