Starting another Comp/Fun Buggy
My buddy has a JD2 model 3 hydraulic bender, and I bought the 1.5"-5.5 180 die. I'm kinda working on design right now, and after this weekends CALROCS, I will begin bending the tubing.
Specs: I have 4 -14" SAW's and Atlas (Thanks to Advance Adapters). Mustang 5.0L with Al heads, C4, and High pinion 60's with ARB's.
My first question is,
How close to a bend (lets say a 45 dgree) can you get, before starting a second bend in the opposite direction?
Here's a pic of the rear links. Please excuse the sesame street CAD work. If someone could plug my numbers into a real cad program, that would be cool!
Any suggestions would be apprciated.
