| cartronicshn's not sure what to build thread
Guys i need some input, i have a couple tlt's unbuilt for a while now, and i started a build with one of them, i have a couple unused chassis, so i am going with this one(if possible), i want to build a hybrid but i need to shorten the wb, i know i can shorten the front links, but i am having trouble figuring out how to shorten the wb in the rear, i figure if i bring the mounting points closer i will increase the arch=more hieght and stiffness, i would like to use a couple of harbodies i have laying around, one is a little over 10 1/2" ford body, and the taco wb comes in at a little over 10 1/4", anyways if it can't be done i'll throw a betty body on it. |

Very cool to see another OG Blackfoot build out there! I really wish I could pick up another body cheap as the prices have gone through the roof for them! ROCK ON!!!! |
