3/4 frames...

also turning 2x3 on its side is only going to give you 2" or so to run an exhuast system.

here's my .015 cents, if you're going to all the trouble of a one off 3/4 back frame, why not go the extra 1/4 and built a complete one off frame? And if you want to keep it lighter could always run round tubing..

round tubing... hmmmm... would that work?

got a pic or two to show this?

here is a link to one of matt's pics (grant kustoms) japan trip if you go to there site, gallery, japan show pics, part 2 it's in there

what size of round tubing? details bray...

possibility of runnin the same setup, but with a full round tube frame, front to back...

i'd say 2.5" with a thick wall, if not larger 3" for the main frame rails......check & see what size nascar uses......

round tubing is for the pro's only..much harder to work with and if your welds arnt perfect forget about it the thing with snap like a twig.. you would have to build the frame like a "ladder" and mucho triangulation..

nothing worth having is easy, true it may be harder to fab a tubular frame, but if done correctly, the results are sweetness!

Tis is true... i just dont wanna see the kid get in over his head...to be totaly honest..if ya just did a trad bd. with a 2x3 backhalf you can have your truck back on the road in a week or so can still run narrowed rails.and it will still look awsome.

very tru, if you don't have the facilities, time or tools, even the skills, your better off sticking to what you said
