just a tip to get a nice straight cut on the aluminium with the saw, clamp a straight edge to your material the width of the guard from your line to cut and run along it as a guide. Also bees wax helps as a good cutting compound to help the blade from gumming up. works on the grinder cutting discs as well for cutting aluminium.
@25:07 For marking the seat belt bracket holes, take a q-tip and bend it at a 90 degree angle, spray a little spray paint on it, and then mark the hole.
Don’t put used junk in that modern updated new late model “cough” I mean street “stock” lmao 😂 yea right. Much as the steering box a very important part of get u quality sweet box.. look into getting DRP LoW drag bearings and seals ue light eight inertia wheel there 19# vs 22 #. Willwood rotors are like 1.5# lighters then other. To but anything that rotatesgeet it as light as u can Use mono ball bearing everywhere u can they have rubber inserts that u can’t tell they are mono ball. And in the front all star sell roller bearing busing don’t cheap out on anything goin in Or on this late model cough I mean street stock
It is a Sweet Mfg box, I can’t use low drag components like bearings per the rules, the wheels have a weight rule also, and I can’t use monoballs on anything, again, per the rules. I put everything in that I can gain an advantage on, but the rules are VERY strict up here on what we can and can’t do.
Not sure what ratio box you are using like you say rules dictate what can use.. We have no real steering box rule but in my case I began using steering quickeners on my dirt cars and when went back asphalt/concrete our home track is concrete I continued using the steering quickener.... that has helped me miss many wrecks and catching the car in a what would have been a spin out with a slower steering.. I have a 16:1 box and a 2:1 quickened which I think would be better to be a 1.5:1 .. It is like driving a go kart.. Never have to turn the wheel more than 3" from center either way instead of 1/4 to 1/2 turn as before

I would put the fuel cell in first and then brace the rear-end mounts and I hope you feel better soon
Are you going to paint the chassis after you get it all mocked up
Yes, just fitting the last few things before we paint it

Lets just say the box is quite “short” when it comes to the ratio😂
