Kirden Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Haha, this looks really fun. Never been wheelin or off roading (unless sliding corners on dirt roads in a toyota tercel counts...) Look forward to seeing some videos since I'm too much of a pansy to turn my datsuns into off road vehicles :P Quote Link to comment

yellowdatsun Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 You've already got the Trophy Truck style roll cage, you should just go all the way and do their style of suspension too. With the engine further back, you can make your own A-arms up front, and put the pivots near the frame centerline. Then ditch the stock 510 trailing arms, and make something with more travel. 1 Quote Link to comment

Then ditch the stock 510 trailing arms, and make something with more travel. that's my plan for next season molly arm front , and buggy style rear arms long travel , but I have another 510 off road racer that is a trophy truck chassis/frame 4 link rear arms , VQ35 3.5lt Nissan v6 6 speed box with a full fibreglass 510 coupe body on it :) build pics on this one will be coming soon :) Quote Link to comment
