Default Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series

In the first post about this project I mentioned it will be an in house, shop built package. So far, so good, check the new right side frame mock up.

The four link front upright piece is 3 x 2 x .125 tubing. The upper rails are 2 x 2 x .125. New rails are tacked and fit well. Next week will complete the same frame work on left side.

Coming soon, anti-roll bar crossmember and hardware. Plus front crossmember between forward four link brackets.

The new frame is 23" outside to outside. [8 1/2" in-board of the factory frame on each side] This allows as large as a 32 x 14 but I plan to run a 31.5 x 13.5 M/T radial.

There will be a crossmember between the shock mounts and that is also were the roll bar rear struts will attach.

Good progress and more soon.
