    Should I build them

    I have built a lot of circle track cars. We spent a ton of time researching front end geometry. Majority of them were built on Camaro subframes, however we did several Mopars. They are very difficult to adjust when in a stock location. The rules never stated that we could not move the upper...

    Should I build them

    Yea, sorry bout that. I get a little testy sometimes, you aint being a peckahead. :toothy10: I try to keep my price reasonable. I dont want to gouge anyone, but I have to make enough $$ to keep the doors open, ya know.

    Should I build them

    I see, so maybe I shouldn't bother building them then?

    Should I build them

    Well, I am not looking for anyone to price stuff for me, just thought I would see what members thought they were worth. But everyone does have to realize the extent of the work required, as well as the fact these are American made, and American taxes being paid.8) I think if I build them I...

    Should I build them

    Thanks for the positive responses. :rock: They are not easy to build. I will have to make a fixture, and there are a lot of close tolerances that need to be maintained. They are a critical component of the front suspension roll center, and geometry. I have to maintain that in a stock position...

    Should I build them

    We have seen a lot of rust issues with the A-body upper control arm mount area. I had a 69 in here and built a replacement for it Any interest in me offering it for sale as a regular product? Rusty Dave

    Subframe Connector dilemma

    I understand that argument and can see why its seems like a no brainer, but it should really be looked at from an engineering point of view. You have to see how energy (large amounts of it, violently and in reverse during shifts) is transferred when put under load. If you do a 3 dimensional...

    Subframe Connector dilemma

    First you have to consider what sub frame connectors are designed to do. Handle the "beaming" loads that happen when we throw gobs of torque at these flimsy uni-body cars. Remember we are throwing considerable amounts of torque at the bodies, after 40 years of wheelspin, we have tremendous tires...
