"flame" shaped frame brackets for hairpins

[Lowrollerchevy]

current layout size makes it 4 1/4 x 10 1/4, but im going to try to shrink that some w/o losing the visual appeal

what ya guys think so far?

noone has any comments ?

They look cool, but I can't use them, my car is a 4 bar setup.

How are you going to mount them in with the hairpins and what will you use to cut them?

 

[Lowrollerchevy]

a short piece of .5" id tubing welded to the bottom side of the frame, with these welded to the outside of the frame would work quite well

i would have them laser cut

Depending on the final size, I think they would be an interestng addition to the right car. But I'm kinda partial to flames.

current size is comparable to a pop can ... so ive really shrunk it down, and i dont think it could get much smaller either

i am not sure about the frame brackets, but they would look real good to me as stiffening brackets welded between the two bars. maybe a 1/4 inch thick?

Or i'm thinking bumper/nerf bars hmmmm how much per pair?

 

[flatheadgary]

how about the front plate that welds to the axle for the spring and four bar mount.

 

[Lowrollerchevy]

something like this ?

now that would be cool, i think.
