|  Reworking the Super
I just thought I would try to make some improvments on my super for the 2007 season, so I got some thorns so I could run the C cells under the knuckles. It was tight but I got them in there. I will have to put the 7th cell on the axle tube cause it wouldn't fit. I also switched shocks and lowered the ride height 1". I will put new mounts on the rear for the shocks. I am going to tear down the chassis and ad some side panals to fill the gap up front and also add a hood so I will be compliant with the 2007 rules. All in all I am happy with the way it looks, I narowed the thorns to 2 inches, but am still waiting on the adapters. Well hears the pics from the work I did today. The first one is the old setup. Any sugestions are welcome. |

Got the batt's finished tonight, the weight distribution is perfect now, also I think the really low stance is goin to help out tremendiously in the off camber situations. The w/b in now 17.25"
