Does anyone have any pics or comments on this frames back seat room to fit adults? I am trying to decide on a 4 seat frame and I really like the looks(and wheelbase) of the sand fox but I need to make sure there is room

Yeh im headed there myself.. I want the passengers to have room and be safe. Those high bench,or small back seats due to space seem aggravating

I really liked my sandfox 4 seater. I thought it was the perfect frame. A 4 seater that was not too long and I also liked the higher side bars. Here is a link to pics of my build.

I am 5 10 and I had the front seats pushed as far forward as I could. Notice the steering wheel is almost touching the windshield. Then I put the rear seats all the way back to the torsion housing and tilted all the seats about 15 degrees.

When I was all done, adults could ride in the back. It was not that bad but a little tight. However, you can only use fiberglass seats. You will not be able to fit suspension seats.

Another great sandfox build in Aboone's silver buggy. You can search the forum.

Make sure to add extra bracing. This was another Berrien frame that had the same cage design as the sand fox 4 seat frame.

That is why I added the extra supports to my sand fox
