What Ultima chassis?

Post by Jay Dub »

Picked up an ultima from the bay. Short wheelbase, 20 degree kick up. Question is, who made it? Composite Craft? It has 3 holes on each side that I am not familiar with. Trailing arms maybe?

Most probably a BRP (Bullet racing Products) chassis, they also made the specific trailing arms for it.

I would rather it go to someone who will use it for a build (I hope :)). Besides, I am in the process of molding my own chassis blanks for the Ultima at the moment 8) . -Jeff

I wonder if the chassis would work with this style of trailing arm?:
