Hello all
I have recently purchased a GTD in bits from another club member. As my gtd chassis, is currently bare, I have the opportunity of making modifications to it before I commence cladding
So far from reading the advice and comments in the forum I have gleaned that the following are useful
raise steering rack height 7/16
provide support for 5 point harness across rear bulkhead
relocate rear upper wishbone mount up 80mm
provide support in fuel tank pods to strengthen for side impact
brace "hoop" to rear to reduce flex and stiffen roll cage
increase footwell depth
Are there any other mods I should consider whilst the angle grinder and welder are out??
does anyone have good images of these\mods on their chassis that I can use as a guide?
engine lowering. lots of discussion on the merits of lowering the engine mounts, but by how much before transmission angles, and road clearance became a major issue. This has a r21, and will be mainly road use, with perhaps a ttle track day time..........
thanks for your help
Steve
