Guest Anonymous Posted May 20, 2001 Share Posted May 20, 2001 Hi John This is Jack I sent you some pictures of my 74 260z that i was in the process of tubbing. The fourlink w/coil over set came from Chassis Works, also it has a 12point cage. A ladder bar are just too long for this car wheel base, the ladder bar end up under your seat. I used 1 5/8 mild steel tubing, this allow me to be able to install a 14x32 slick or 19x32 street tire. I also used a track locator because a panhard bar is a tight fit. I will also send you pictures of my 78z it had a four link and a ford 9in w/ 19x31.5 mickey thompson sportman pro. My biggest problem with these car are legg room, I,m 6'5. I'm getting ready to sell one of these cars. Give a me few days and I will send you very detail pictures of both car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Night_rider_383 Posted May 20, 2001 Share Posted May 20, 2001 Michael.... Thanks man It would be a big help to see some of the chassis/floor ran pics. If you was closer to me i might try to buy that one off of you, but the tow fee will kill me on getting it lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
