Hello guys im new to here. My 1st question is im building a rat rod and i have a 5 lug rearend and needing a front i beam axle and needs to be 5 lug. Any ideas what donor i can look for?
I suggest that you ask this question first thing Monday morning so that you can get the full ATTENTION of everybody on this board, You will get a lot of response then!
Foulkkustoms, you have committed cardinal sins numbers one through four. 1 is, introduce yourself before you post or start a thread. 2 is, this forum is for traditional rods, not rat rods. 3 is pretty much the same as 2, and so is 4. As Cajun Kenny noted, you may have unleashed the genie from the bottle. Watch this space for reactions.
No he opened pandoras box with all the ugly being unleashed on society. No matter what you may have read in a magazine we are not about R__ Rods here or shock rods either. As for 5 lug axle it is not the axle that determins the lug count or bolt pattern it is the hub, as we have no idea what kind of rod you are actually building it would be impossible for us to suggest an axle, hub and or brake setup for you. All that said why not root around here for a while, see what we are about and maybe after a bit you will decide that you have either used a bad description or that a more traditional route is what you would like to take in your endevor to build a car.
Every so often you look at a post and think "This guy is just here to stir up trouble". This is one of those times. Don
And before you know it there will be another guy selling Viper parts on here or better yet Trans Am parts.
Damn Beaner That answer was just about civil, You keep on and people might change their opinion of you ! Just pulling your chain....I love most of your responses.........
I started coming here for all the pictures of cool HOT RODs and customs from all around the world. Now I come here just waiting for some poor soul to say RAT ROD. let the beatings begin.
