I heard they have somewhat weak fenders. I'll be welding A arms forward all seams. Mine was welded a arms forward and fenders are far from weak I creased and bolted my creasing. The frame ripped and tore bad. I had no plating and was running a tilt class so fords was all over it. Thing is super heavy so plan ahead for gearing. I had 411 gears with 25 inch tall tires I don't think it was enough for how dirt track was. And I ran mine with the rubber on the a arm still. They never moved and took alot of wheel shots. we-crash.proboards.com/thread/70696/framer-build-thread?page=1

Some 15s. They're taller than I like but overall the car sits fairly level.

This your first y framer? Yes it is. Wish I could do more to it but the rules are pretty stock and strict. The back will be dished also.

Rule are pretty strict and only allow little modifications. I wish I was able to crease and weld or bolt more than I have.

For what the build was I layed down some hard hits. I ended up getting 3rd place. I ended up twisting my driveshaft off and timed out.
