Narrowed front axel?

I wonder if you american builders use narrowed front beam?

Seams like all you speedsters are lower than our european built once..

Like Lambros 356 is very low and thats the look im looking for...

Greatful for answers..

I use adjustable front beam. It is not narrowed but stock width. If you choose,you can get narrowed adjustable beam. If I am not mistaken, it cost me $130 give or take. Cbperformance.com has narrow ones for ball joint or link pin for $189
I am glad you like it though.Thanks.

Ok, i bought one of those adjustble "puma" front beams..
So that would do it..
I have to say ive been dreaming of building my own speedster for 15 years, when i saw your red one i went the next day and bought a shortend chassie and a spare car to start with..

I hasvent seen any more good looking than yours..

Thank you for the info...

Nonno you got mail.

I agree lambros. I usually don't like the speedsters without bumpers but yours looks killer. Great job.

Thanks guys.

Im after a narrowed front beam, but have heard the Puma ones are hard to adjust. Does anyone know who sells non-Puma narrowed front beams? Thanks, Otto

pumas hard to adjust?!?

it's two nuts. it can be adjsuted in a matter of minutes. i have a puma with drop spindles on mine.

The front beam in my car had three inches cut from each side. The steering box was going away anyhow. Three inches seems to be the most you can remove before you start to cut the bearings themselves, and there's a bit of drilling to be done for the grub bolts to go back in. You have to cut the spring blades down, reinsert them and then use a dye grinder to make new sockets for the bolts. Took about a day -- and I didn't do the grunt work. Can be done, though.
The two-inch CB drop spindles put the front end of the body at less than three inches from the ground.
