Tubular rear subframe - Input needed

[99gst_racer]

Sorry if I missed this throughout this thread, but would a 1G version be available? Feel free to PM me as I would be in the market to buy if it is.

The 1G rear subframe is on my winter to-do list, along with a 2G front k-member. Force Engineering will get the first 1G subframe for testing as soon as I finish it.

I recently aquired a stock subframe to use to build a jig and I'll be starting a thread about it here as soon as work begins.

How many rear x-members are on the road/track now Paul?

Just two. I'm working on a third one right now, and have orders for 3 more after that. So we'll see a handful of cars running them come next spring.

All this work better not impact you getting your car up and running by spring

We'll see. So far, not having a garage for my DSM is really impacting getting it back together though. Time to work on it will definitely be an issue too, but I'm OK with that. I really enjoy building parts for others and it all adds to the car fund in one way or another. At some point I'll burn out and need to take a break, and then it will be a perfect time to reassemble my DSM.

as long as the burn out happens after mine is done

Any rough idea how much weight savings you'd be able to get out of it? Will you keep sway bar provisions? Very interested.

Too early to tell. I haven't even weighed the factory one yet.
But yes, it will have a sway bar option.

Here's some pics of the control arms I recently build for Andrew Brilliant's time attack 2G. I did these a little different than before. I added double adjusters so that length is quick and easy to change on the fly. And they have standoffs for use on a factory rear subframe.

Unfortunately, I'm not offering the control arms by themselves. These were an exception to the rule to help Andrew out.

[greengoblin]

I am very interested in one of your 2g rear subframes. I sent you a PM and an email, but I have not received a response. When you get a chance can you please respond to my PM?

Close on my house on Tuesday next week, not too long until I start prepping the car to install my rear subframe Paul. FINALLY!

I'll plan my surgery as soon as you make the 1g subframes available. How much can I sell a kidney for these days anyway? I'll find a way to get a tubular subframe for my 1g one way or another - and my wife wouldn't notice I was missing a kidney... I'll just have to tell her the surgery is for an appendix removal or something.

You can do that..Why am I just finding out now..I dont need this kidney,I dont even drink..Or wait, thats the liver..Well either way.

Just start donating to the sperm bank and by the time Paul will have one built for a 1g you should have a few thousand saved.

Paul's still waiting for me to install the subframe I bought from him months ago, it just hasn't been possible after I separated from the military and moved. I've also been procrastinating because of that DGR GB I was in, I don't want to align the car twice so I've been a bit reluctant to start tearing the back end apart just to do it again in February.

- I better start making my contributions to that bank starting today... my wife will think I'm cheating on her - I guess I would be, for a subframe.
