Thanks guys! i used a tube bender i got from sears for the bends and for tight ones i used a metal pipe as guide(not a perfect bend...but it works for me). i also use solid and brake line tubing. |

dont know if you plan to just bash with it or compete but, if you plan to compete, SCRC set a 5.2" limit on tires... Just something to think about

your rig is progressing nicely. you are right, this is a 2.2 thread....... but your rig looks much better with the 1.9s IMO:-P If you are going to run it 4 link, If she'll be a poser, leafs Last edited by Rocksolo; 06-05-2009 at 11:44 AM. |
