Sorry for the slow updates, started a new job and have been busy. But cut the spindles off tonight and got them back together with 10 degrees caster and -2 camber and it’s so so much better for handling, could definitely improve it with smaller rear slicks but it’s not a concern at this point. I...

Got the stage 2 and mikuni done the other day have test rode a few times definitely need to address the steering (lots of understeer. Gonna cut the spindle brackets off and adjust camber and caster. Still gotta finish tuning the carb but it pulls hard.

Ordered a stage 2 kit today and genuine mikuni 22 more to come soon

I used regular 3/4 steel. Stainless is a pain to weld and I just used a manual bender cause I sold my hydraulic one 😩 it’s not perfect but it’s good enough.

Finished up the front and cable guide today

T Thank you! And I appreciate that link that is definitely the style I am looking for and I will definitely try that I’ve looked around quite a bit and can’t find any similar frames.

Yes forsure and it’s similar to what’s in it now. My stepdad used to repair haas machinery so I may see if he knows anyone that could cast some polyurethane bushings just cause it lasts forever and looks a little cleaner I’m sure it’s more expensive though.

Nice man thank you so much!

Better look at the brackets

That’s correct I am referring to the bushings in the barrels, the rubber is awful and very old. And the axle is only 8.5 inches from bearing to wheel mount overall length is 3ft. Same setup it had for racing for years problem free so I’m sure it’ll be fine.

Thanks! Spindles are 2 3/4 and I have no idea where those brackets came from unfortunately.
