That's the plan. The guys who built my cage are bending me up some metal and I should have it today. Still debating between welding and bolting, they have done both bolting and welding and didn't have a preference.beatersubi wrote:You could attach a piece of round tube between the frame rails to act as a skid plate mount. It'd probably be better to have it bolt in with all the abuse it'll take.

I do have additional mounting for the skidplate in the plan.beatersubi wrote:That looks really good, however...
I would be concerned about using the radiator lower support and the crash bar. Its likely much stronger than the stock piece, but I've seen too many of them take out the radiator after bottoming the front or an aggressive water crossing. Additional skid plate support is highly recommended.

I did get ahold of John immediately. He told me there was nothing wrong with it my car having positive camber. I received mine around the same time USUK racing got there's and sent them back for a similar issue. IThere were a few of us in the Colorado area that got struts the same time from John and I was the smallest issue. My friend Ryan's inserts weren't straight from the start and they just went back to John and that's only the start of the story.beatersubi wrote:Lots of work ahead. A lightweight flywheel is a good thing.
Re the alignment: have you considered adjustable upper mounts? Strange that the JVABs are so out. Have you consulted John about it? His workmanship is usually very good.

Still trying to figure out how to mount the quickener. Wish I could find a little quicker rack. Might look at that since i need to rebuild/replace my disgusting rack as is.beatersubi wrote: I've wondered about using a steering quickener, myself. Would you mount it at the rack?
