Shredder 2, My Design Hybrid Build

[Torquerolljoe]

You are right about the rack, but I call Scott at Ubuildit, and he said it will not affect it!! I built the front end using his plans to the tee!!! So, hopefully it will be ok.

He may be right as the spindles are going to be further away than the end of the arms so this may work correctly. When you get it done, tell me as I'd like to know. Even put on the spindles and remove the shocks and carry it through the arc to see how it works before you get too far into it.

[Torquerolljoe]

Jeds Tire Wholesale. They have an ebay store. They are Douglas .190 thick red label wheels. 8x8 with a 4 on 4 wheel pattern. I really like them!! Tires are from motosport.com. Shipping was free on order over $100.00!! Thanks!!
