Group,
I have a 65 Sprite on a pallet in back right now. It has hubs,
spindles, and axles, but is resting on a stack of pallets.
I also have several blocks of steel, a lathe, a milling machine, and
I can kind of weld.
I know some of you drive your cars on the street without pallets
underneath, and I was wondering if you could give me the measurements
of the devises that allow you to do that. I need to know OD, width,
number and placement of bolt holes, etc. Also, any input on
enhancements would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

==================================
C. Retep,
OD of approx. 20.5 inches and a width of approx. 7 inches. These figures
may be adjusted somewhat to your taste.
4 holes drilled equidistant in a 4 inch circle concentic with the axles will
work well.
Pressurize to 25 PSI, more or less, with a mixture of 79% nitrogen, 20%
oxygen and 1% of an assortment of readily available gases. You can find
some in the back end of the shop near where the shocks are rebuilt. Just
look around -- they are there. If you can't find these gasses locally, I
will bring some warmed up samples with me next time I come over.
