CHASSIS AND SUSPENSION
The frame is a T.C.I. Model "A" reproduction that has been raised
and narrowed in the rear.
The center Crossmember is a custom "K" ember that I made. It is
made from 1/8 inch steel box tubing with stamped 1/8-inch U-channel
legs about 2 plus feet long. The trans mount is intergraded into
this. There are pass through bungs installed in the Crossmember in
order to pass the brake line and 2 fuel lines through it. The 6:1
ratio brake pedal / Corvette master cylinder is intergraded into
the Crossmember as well. Everything was Tig-Welded and partially
ground smooth (metal finished).
The rear Jag. Crossmember is custom. It has been revised and
re-angled for the correct pinion angle. The rear shock tubes are
centered and thicker tubing than normal. There are gussets in the
corners. Again everything was Big-Welded and partially ground
smooth. Shock tubes are tack welded only1
The rear suspension is a 1-inch per side narrowed 3.8 Sedan Jag.
The lower control arms have been lowered 1-inch at the shocks. The
hub carriers are custom made (chromed steel, Dan Woods's
look-a-likes) with over 60 in them alone. There is over 50 hours in
re-shaping, smoothing, etc. that has been done on the rear-end
itself. There are 4 Billet Aldan Shocks with Polished Quick-Change
style from Speedway Motors. The Drive hubs both a 4 3/4 & 4 1/2
Bolt patterns. The rear-end gears are 350:1 Pos (new); all of the
rest is new inside as well. The brakes are polished 4-pistion
Willwood. The link plated 1/2-inch thick rotors are new with a
groove machined in the middle. Most of the hardware is 12-point
aircraft.
The front suspension is a Kugel I.F.S. It is investment cast
polished stainless steel show quality. Everything is either
polished or chrome plated. The calipers are polished 4-piston
Willwood's. It has a new TRW rack (black) with a chrome front sway
bar. The front shocks match the rear (Billet Aldans with
progressive wound variable-rate springs that are chrome). The
Crossmember is Big welded with partial metal finishing. The
wheelbase is 1/2-inch longer than stock, as I wanted a better, more
centered look in the fenders.
The radiator mounting tabs were moved forward (1-inch) as well for
a sleeker look.
The motor mounts are Big-Welded and ground smooth on top. They
allow a S.B.C. with side mounts to install effortlessly. The mounts
also allow the use of a 4-utbe full length headers.
The Fram has been fully filled and or ground flat to an 80-grit
D.A. finish (Grinder mode).
The chassis is primed in light gray enamel primer.
The only thing that needs to be done to the chassis in order to
finish it is the following: 1. Make & install the rear radius rods
& radius rod frame brackets 2. Make & install rear pinion support,
3. Weld the top shock tubes, they are tacked welded now 4. set the
pre-load in the hubs. I have the parts!
