Bo, 4 into 1. I have to still find/make some SSteel rings for joining the tubes. I have a pile of suspension parts I need to collect from my engineer Geraldo.
Money is tight but he's cool. I drop of material and drawings, he does the work, I collect and when I bring the next batch I pay.
I tried three different versions of front suspension that wouldn't work but I might have come up with the best compromise yet. Space is at a premium and the packaging is a nightmare. I have about 8 inches between the spindles to work with.
Geoff, I used Carbon because the Aluminum tubing available in that size is heavy wall stuff and the steel has a weld seam. Imagine having to choose the black stuff over steel!
The materials are here and I have to use them.
The resin I use to build gas tanks is obviously chemical resistant and that makes it very good at handling heat but doesn't have what I'd call a shelf life. A 5 gallon keg runs at about 3 grand and my experience has been that once you open the can you'd better use it.
I have to use the resin and because I have good Carbon and not so good looking Carbon I made the decision to do the tubes with the fabric that has a few blemishes.
It took about 25 minutes to wrap. I'm doing an oil pan for a 572 Chevy at the same time so there's no waste.
