Do you still have the spare rear bulkhead asso-man!, i have been looking for ages for one, and noticed you had two

Sorry, I trade it with Scr8p a long time ago for a RPM one. Didou might have some left, just shoot him a PM

[Asso_man!]

Asso_man, can you get a shot of the tranny/rear arm alignment? In assembling mine, the dog bones are swept forward, and if I remember right, you want the swept back for best performance (mine will be a runner/racer). Your top down shot almost shows what I am talking about.

I'll do that ASAP this week-end, you would like a top view of the rear end right?

[JK Racing]

If possible, that would be great.

[Asso_man!]

did you see the one Scr8p posted in the other thread? Is that one useful or do you want mine also?

[JK Racing]

The other thread is the car I am building. If yours are inline, no need to post. Thank you though.

[Asso_man!]

Almost two years after I started this build, I was finally able to source an Andy's battery cup (credit to Al), steering rack (unique and fantastic concept IMO), front bumper, spindles and carriers (thanks Paul!). The only thing I would like to find would be an Andy's front graphite shock tower. I also plan to mount an A&L rear shock tower on it. Whenever I have some spare time this week I'll try to fit everything on the chassis and keep you guys posted!



The AWESOME steering rack

[Mr. ED]

Mmm, that just gave me an idea for an ultra short steering rack.
Now if only I'd have some acces to CNC services and a cad program on the pc

deep bow to you david for all that patience

i have never seen an andy's graphite tower for the standard front kickup. only for the pro (narrow) kickup. they did have 2 different molded towers, though.

congrats on finding your missing andy's pieces.

I REALLY need a steering rack, HINT, HINT!

fyi - this was on Ebay a couple of weeks ago, kind of weird looking at the bottom:

[scr8p]

al, that one's for the pro race (narrow) kick up. those you could get in molded as well as graphite.

[a01butal]

Yes, I thought it didn't look right but apparently a bunch of others either didn't know or did know and had an application, just glad I held off bidding on it as I was thinking about it.

[scr8p]

the pro front shock towers have the same mounting points as a 10t or rpm worlds tower, so it'll work in a couple different applications. not on just an andy's bulkhead.

not to derail david's thread, but i used a pro graphite tower on my v-nats car, attached to an rpm worlds bulkhead.

[a01butal]

That looks pretty cool.
