Comparing an OE application to a race or sand car isn't a sound argument. We don't have airbags or other saftey features OE applications have. The issue is spinal compression and body movement in a suspension seat. Agree that helmet is important, but disagree with the seat choice isn't as...

Great post Ace. Few things to add... From Jeff Furrier of UPR Racing Products: "A shell seat like a Sparco is crash tested to meet FIA standards that are compiled in part from real crash data. The FIA standards are strict and it’s not cheap to get a seat tested and approved, which keeps...

Great suggestions! Thanks for sharing.

I am going to always wear my neck restraint with my helmet now. Helmets are getting very light, but the neck restraint will help keep your head on your shoulders and hopefully prevent a broken neck. I wear a Simpson hybrid sport with a carbon impact helmet.

The crash caused whip lash, first forward then back into the seat. The whip lash backward into the seat caused a brain bleed, unconsciousness, and a concussion. He was not wearing a helmet. I believe a helmet and neck restraint would have prevented the aforementioned injuries and allowed him to...

He was not wearing a helmet or neck restraint.

We were very lucky that a dear friend of ours is going to fully recover from a terrifying accident last weekend in Glamis. I am going to leave details of the accident out of this post and focus on what I learned, including precautions that could have helped in the situation. Wear your helmet...

The outboards they sell today are really geared toward desert racing. Roy at proam advises against outboards for sand cars or Prerunners.

Personally, I would just jump up to the 33 spline HD bearing. Saves you from cutting the trailing arm apart and would be a big upgrade from the 27 spline. The HD link I posted above requires a new flange on the trailing arm.

Check with Parker first, but Pro Am also makes an HD microstub specifically built for big tires and HP. I would go this direction before a true outboard or mid board. Outboards are not good in the sand since the outer boot doesn't rotate and consistently fills with sand...

You can transfer Arizona titles between Arizona residents online, but it requires some work from the seller. https://azdot.gov/mvd/services/vehicle-services/title-and-registration/etitle-transfer

Thomas & Betts Ty-Rap is my go to. Expensive, but much better than anything else I have seen.

I would much rather have zip ties than clamps. High-quality zip ties are still the best option for plumbing off road cars, especially race cars.

I am looking for an LT50 to restore for my son. Will consider any condition. Let me know if anyone has one or sees a listing online.

Great opportunity to swap it with a subaru ;)

Great feedback, might have to add one to our trailer.

Welcome to the site. I am extremely good at breaking wheels, if you need a test dummy!

bk01 powder, which is a semi gloss. Looking back I would have done the grey that McMillin uses on the TTs

Ron, you, and the entire Weddle team were awesome through out the process. Not your fault Albins was backlogged. I would guess that was Dickerson's ST-6 on the cart.

Looking for 17" 5 wide buggy wheels. Aluminum wheels would be great because I can cut them down for loading wheels. It's ok if the lug holes are damaged, jut looking for something cheap.
