Thanks guys. I called Denny and had him send me photos and prices. I am pretty well decided that when I have the money in hand I am ordering it from Him. As an R&D machinist for thirty + years I think I can tell a good job even in pictures. I very much like what I saw. You are right about one...

The plans Ben is using are the same plans I will use. They are well thought out and designed. Thank you one and all for your input.

Way to go Denny! Nice job. I am looking forward to checking it out at length. Thanks for all your hard work.:coffee2:

HemiDenny: I am going to ask for more information. I have looked into both. Could you send me some information and a price list? I like the looks of your work. Not sure if you got my PM. Does your system work with the stock t-bars? What would you suggest for steering? Is your setup designed for...

LOL , yes to both accounts. As a past machinist, I know these things. Makes me wish I was still able to have access to a full shop! However, we make do with what we have.:cheers:

I have thought about buying one for my car. I have done some research, QA1 makes some good stuff. I am interested in using my t-bars.Have not made a final decision, but I think it looks decent and you can save some money buying from Summit, and not just shipping! I hope this is helpful. Harold...

Has anyone experience with AJE suspension? Has anyone heard anything about it?:burnout:

Dear Denny: We have talked some on the forum. Could you send me information about your suspension , prices, etc. One last question. Do you have a version that uses the torsion bars? Harold

This guy thinks like I do...... Better safe than sorry! FYI the link to the plans is:http://redwingsteelworksplans.com/ These come with good advise, a full list of parts etc. I have built things like this before, but if you have a list of materials it makes it easier, even to substitute sizes...

I'm thinking of building my own. I downloaded a great blueprint from the Internet. For free. The guy has a fab shop and has built these for years. He said this would be good for 3000# but having been an R@D machinist for 35 years+ I'm one to error on the overbuilt side! Knowing that an Abrams...

Like I said, Do you think the wall thickness is heavy enough for the weight?

I am thinking of building a car rotisserie for my barracuda. Can a full car minus motor and transmission be put on a rotisserie and worked on? If so, will 3/16" wall (.1888) be strong enough? Anyone try this and or heard of this?

I am still intrigued by the idea of IRS rear suspension. Has anyone got information on this? Some of my ideas include Ford 8.8 IRS from explorer or mercury. IRS from an after market sorce ( read expensive ) or possibably IRS from a wrecked corvette or even a dodge charger or newer hemi car. Any...

Thank you all for your input! Jo you have done some great work. I was a R&D machinist for thirty plus years. You have feed me some chewing msterial for some time. I appreciate what each has contributed. I'm not afraid of the fabrication work. Having the tools at your disposal is great, but doing...

Not sure if this is the right forum for this but I'm going to toss it out for comment. What type of rear suspension works best for protouring or roadrace/autocross? Should I stick with the standard springs and use caltracks or should I consider a four link of some kind. I have also considered an...
