Chassis/Suspension

Before we started this business, we raced asphalt stock cars and was later involved in technical inspection as well as rule book writing and interpretation. We have setup the suspension on many successful stock cars, drag cars and road race cars. We know chassis/suspension. You can be confident that your chassis/suspension will be done right. Below are a few examples of the many chassis/suspensions we have restored or customized.
