Back-halved/Frame combo???

Postby ShawnT72 » Mon Jun 16, 2008 3:12 pm

Hey Guys. I was looking for some ideas on back halfing and building a 2x3 frame for my Astre. Has anyone done this yet. I've seen the sfc's and all but would like to go a different route. I was wondering if the frame thing would be possible? I've read the thread on the "Bolt-in frame", but I'd like to find something thats Tried & True. Thanks for the input. -Shawn

There was/is an SSK coil over rear kit but I'm not sure if its available anymore. Brian

I agree. That looks like a fun ride. Looks like it launches pretty hard. :D -Shawn

My kit doesn't look quite like the pictures you posted. I have next week off, I'll try to get some underbody pictures and get them on here for you. Here are a couple of the rear that I already had, but they don't show much..

Thanks for the pics Sean. That would be a great help. Would you mind getting pics of the front underside, also. Thanks for all your help and have a great week-end. -Shawn

Can anyone help,

Lately my pics have been getting cut off. This never used to happen. They are the same size as I have posted here in the past....
