What kind of rims are you running on the rear? THey look just like mine,which are off a circle track car.If so,where did you get the adapters?I had a set made out of 1/4 " alum. and already bent them after 2 rides.

Mine are 1/2" 6061 and I haven't bent them yet. I am only reducing my lug pattern down to the wide 5 VW pattern so they are not as big as the 4 lug adapters.

Looks really good Mike. Have you put that transaxle in yet????

The wheels are Dirt track Late Model wide 5. I made the adaptors out of 6061-T6, 3/4" thick at the minium. These won't break, or if they do I have bigger problems than that.
Not yet Roy, two more weeks. I need to get two sets of spindles and a set of arms done first. And thanx, it is comming together nice.
