take a look here

why no bend chris?

 

i see

 

ok here is what i came up for an internal design

 

damn chris isnt on

 

chris how about this for internals

 

i couldnt figure a way to do an x internally like this the middle brace can be welded in then the other brace could be welded after that

 

yeah i havent got around to adding that in im going to start working on the spindle soon

 

I know you cant get chromoly hot (cut off saw, welder) it will weaken it and it will crack, u have to use a cold saw to cut it

 

hmm dependin on how this turns out ill be up for a pair of course with instructions i have full coverage and life ins hehehe

 

ill let you know lol

 

what is your reasoning for building your own?....hopefully its not because you plan on cost savings. You have to remember that the big boys (TC, camburg...) spend some hefty change on R&D...so they have reasons for the big price tag. If your intent is to make something better than what is on the market, I think you would be hard pressed to acomplish that....however, if your intent is to build them simply because you can and want to, & dont care about the cost or repeated headaches from ironing out the details and learning to fabricate well enough to trust your life on your skills- (years) then go for it!...I will surley buy a set off of you....sign me up 1st for the group buy...how about $1000? will that come with a set of UCA's as well? steering linkage?

 

im still in the design mod i first plan to make out one side and set up a mock mount to see how everything cycles through. and i just like to build shit so i figured why the hell not. i know i wont be able to compete with tc or camburg but i like saying i did this.

 

i got some work done on the spindle.

 

right on...your work so far is commendable!

 

i know chris i am using some stock spindles that ill reinforce and im going to use uniballs on the top and bottom
