Roo Man's Room / New fed chassis tubing question!
« on: October 27, 2016, 11:45:43 AM »
Hello all,
Ok so new fed chassis planning in progress, it will be 200" it's based off of mark Williams and Dave Tuttle designs. I am building it to 2.2c for future. Question is on my lower hoop and lower frame rail can I use 1 1/4 .058 from back to front. I know a lot of chassis mark Williams in particular uses 1 3/8 then transitions to 1 1/4 in the engine bay. My shoulder hoop and top frame rail go from 1 1/2 to 1 3/8 in the engine bay to 1 1/4 up front with telescoping joints at the transitions. I am trying to avoid buying new dies for two bends and I like the idea of all the same tubing on the lower rail. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Justin
