Damn, in on page one!!

slvrbck · 11-18-2010, 10:11 PM

How are you going to drive it with the seat outside the main rails like that? May want to put it back where it was in the first pic.

Looks good guys!!

scyota92 · 11-18-2010, 10:13 PM

that is one nice lookin front axle

Tribe4x4 · 11-19-2010, 05:28 AM

We are driving outside the box, I mean thinking!

Heres a few more to string ya along!

Tribe4x4 · 11-19-2010, 05:32 AM

Rear lower link tabs. I'm not really sold on them just yet. They may change.

Going with a TeraFlex rear 60, we are machining our own outer flanges to work with the TeraFlex spindles. Also running a 10" ring gear in the rear. Full floaters.

toymaniac · 11-19-2010, 09:31 AM

Are your front outer knuckles aluminum? If so....pimp.

tntcherokee · 11-19-2010, 11:53 AM

Haven't made it to the flanges yet, but the Terra spindles will bolt right to them. We are shooting for 65" wide, Willwood brakes, yes aluminum knuckles, 300m shafts, spool in the rear, Arb in the front.

Tribe4x4 · 11-20-2010, 06:14 AM

Heres a quick side shot. Started the roof section.

92redyj · 11-20-2010, 07:51 AM

I really like a lot of things I'm seeing about this chassis!

laproscopic · 11-20-2010, 08:34 AM

Nice curves. I fondle your starfighter daily

What are those aluminum hubs? Blitskrieg? Camberg?

Where is the 10" from?

Will have some progress pics of the starfighter soon. The front ifs corners are getting closer daily

What about hubs-the round things where the wheels attach? Where are they from?

Tribe4x4 · 11-20-2010, 12:57 PM

They are on the way from Teraflex, its there free floater kit. They also make an adapter that bolts their spindle to a 4 bolt unit bearing flange. After Tom and Dean lost the front right wheel at the Silver State race due to unit bearing failure, it was quite obvious we needed a change.

Here it is on the Deans car 4411...

Tribe4x4 · 11-20-2010, 01:51 PM

Heres another pic

TINY · 11-20-2010, 09:48 PM

I believe the man asked you where the 10" gear came from?

My bad, I do believe it came from Currie. Not sure what brand it is though. Tom ordered it, said it was about $400 bucks! It is a Super 60 set up. Hopefully we wont have to grind too much out of the Terra housing for clearance.

Tribe4x4 · 11-22-2010, 05:10 AM

We are going to build our own grill, hood, and cowl out of glass. Going to use this AEV hood as a starting point. Cut it down, change the shape, and make a mold. They will be 54" wide. I need to start that soon, something tells me this will a long process.

Tribe4x4 · 11-22-2010, 05:21 AM

tntcherokee · 11-22-2010, 07:40 AM

How far can you turn those knuckles? I assume you can get 45* no problem, but is there any more?
