Guys Looking at ways to lighten my car and looked at the fixed beam rear subrame replacement that attaches to the healboard area and has to use coilovers. Does anyone run this set up? Do you have to alter or strengthen the arches? |

Dunno if you want to go in this direction but l lost a bit over 20kg in weight out of the rear with aluminum rear swing arms and a disc conversion |

Did you use the KAD arms? They are a little pricey but they are the only arms I know of where u can keep the original cone suspension? |

That's right kad, my driveway has a dished gutter where it meets the road, it's very easy to get a back wheel to lift off the ground by a fair bit when pulling back into the driveway! |

A while ago Matt Reid (the mini man) had a full rear beam setup for sale. His old race one. Contact him for advice. |
