Anyone happen to have an SII frame accurately drawn up in a usable CAD file? preferably .dgn .dwg .dxf or .iges format

I don't but I'm subscribing incase someone does.

[Mechanos]

well.... I'll end up drawing one up if need be. was just hoping maybe somebody had already done it and I could save all that time on my back under the rig measuring shit. today it was 97° but with the humidity, the heat index was 108°.:eek:

[misterfubar]

I've thought about drawing one up, but my CAD skills are severely lacking. That and I didn't bring a Scout frame with me to measure off of.

I'd love to see a heat index of only 108°, but I don't expect any cold fronts to be coming through anytime soon. :flipoff2:

its gettin ready to rain here, forcast to be 102 tommorow. guess what tonights thunderstorms are gonna do to the ole' index.

I started the front half of mine in UNX. It's in .prt. Ill see if i can dig it out.

Thanks, but don't bother on my account. I don't know what the fawk a .prt file is and neither does my CAD program. :flipoff2:

Snoop*had* one. IIRC correctly its what he used to draw up his first 4-links.


Maybe he'll share?

[troutbum]

what is with all the finger painting in here lately, get out the welder and glue some hoops and links on already :flipoff2:

well I don't do any CAD wheeling but I have pics of COs on a full scout frame, and my rear 4 link I am currently building if it will help (saw your other post)

[Mechanos]

Finally got around to laying underneath the rig and pulling some measurements tonight. Got the frame rails of the back section of the frame drawn up, but still need to add the cross-braces. I still have to pull some measurements off the front section and tack it on as well.

of a '77 SII


BTW How do I show pictures like the above post instead of links??

Thanks T3.... but I can't use a solidworks file either. I've got this one going now, so I'll just keep adding to it.

[Mechanos]

Did a little more work on it tonight since the weather has been so nice here lately.

Thanks. So how did you do that?

[Mechanos]

You have to be a picture whore to do that.... :flipoff2:

[Snoopy]

So do you guys have a file or what?

[T3]

Solidworks

[sparkmechanic]

Could i get a dwg / dxf or even export to Solid Edge maybe, that will give me something to toy around with.

[Mechanos]

Mine is still in the works, but it is a .dgn but could easily be exported as a .dwg, .dxf, or .igs

There are more than one way to do it. I did it using photobucket. Go to photobucket.com and make a free account. Upload pictures to your photobucket account and then use the /img to link the photos on a board such as this. Thats the way I did it, there is prolly an easier way though.

[Snoopy]

Can someone send me some measurements? I'd like to build a buggy frame off the stock frame measurements.

[Munchies]

anyone with cad files have solidworks friendly files that I can use?
Need some dim's and have no scout!

[IHblarp]

I could use a prt. file if anyones got one or makes one
