Andy,

Do you mean anything like the attached?


Cheers

Mark

now thats what i was thinking about :cool:

did you already have that done Mark ?

cheers

Hi Andy,

Dave at work had the chassis modelled on the computer already but with the original rear end. We had never bothered updating it with the framework I made for the grp rear end.

He saw your picture and thought it was time he did it.

Cheers

Mark

nice one
 

iv wrote it down on an old envelope coz i avnt got a printer!!

That must mean you don't smoke then mate as I use fag packets for important drawings...........:D

am i right in thinking the long grp tube fits on the inside bottom lip of the tub and is affixed to it
im am trying to design a larger tank and would like the hassle free option of going grp
anyone have an idea what angle off virtical the tub leans forward at?

I'm just nipping into work baz so i will take an exact measurement for you on the car with my new digital level.....:D

Andrew

You dont need the round tubes on to fit the rear tub Baz just an extra 25mm box putting at the lower rear end of the chassis to fix the lower end of the tub to. There is a thread on here with dims and pics for it, cant remember where it is but a search will find it. Needs to be made a sticky please.

The rear tub is at 16 deg inwards for the lower rear end.

Hope that helps.......Andrew

yep i know no rp's are needed and i have the grp tubes fitted
im modding my back end to get a good size fuel tank in i was going to strech the book one and use the grp tubes to support it and subitute d13
anyone have drawings for grp tank dimentions then i could just strech that
is the radius on the corners of the grp tub same as book spec?
once i have it sused i can share the info on a touring tank mod :D
