I am ready to start building the trans mounts for my wifes buggy and I am running 2x3 arms and have a couple of questions to ask
How far do most of you move the engine and trans back ( 3 rib )to take some of the Angle out of the axles ? I am thinking 1 3/4 ' to 2" if the exhaust will still clear the frame at the rear .
How much is yalls trans tilted ?

Why would you do that? The pupose of 2x3 is to put weght on the front, it defeats the puose to move the motor back.

me bobby had to move johnnys back 1 in. but he is running 5 x 6 arms,it had to much angle on the axles

I under stand that but it seems like the angle on the axles is a little too much . I left the mounts in the stock location on my buggy and it seems they are angled back alot and I know some guys move theirs back some and I was curious how much .

Alot of Bee Line frames use to come with a spacer right on the end of the horns when he knew you were running 2 x 3, i think it was about 1.5 inches. 2x3's aint all about moving weight to the front, everybody aint running a suuubaaaruuu Drilled valves aren't the only secret them boys in ky got... I'm not sure about how much tilt.

I think the object of extended arms is more travel

Back in the day when I ran 3x3 I did not have enough weight over the tires ...so the cars running bus axle's hooked better
