Custom Builders In Here Please?!
Ok, I am going to try to make some custom LCA relocation brackets. I have a few questions about this. What kind of metal? ¼ inch steel good enough? Also If anyone has any measurements or pics I would be VERY thankful!
I only have until Sat. morning. I got to race at 10 am.
Also, Fun racing night next Friday. All heads up racing, Bikini contest (not sure if there is going to be a wet tee contest again), burnout contest, wheelie contest for the bikes. 4 wheelers, vans, bikes, and a CRAP load of IMPORTS!!!!! Hehe, Dinner! Well, Thanks in advance guys!

If you drop me a line at tzfbird@yahoo.com .. I can hook ya up with a design for some brackets.. You'll need to modify them a little though.. I think they are like the bolt-on type(not recomended). I am altering them to weld-on type.
You use 3/16" steel... same thickness as the stock brackets the arms bolt on to.. I am working on my own brackets as well. I forgot what size hole these require, but it is the next possible size bit smaller than half inch. So, whatever that would be.. 31/64"? Amazingly I found one for mine.
Also, unless you work at a machineshop and have nothing else to do all day you probably wont be able to get these done by Sat.
