front crossmember crx
 

just giving some insinght on my current project.
88-91 crx front crossmember made from 1" and 1/2" steel pipe, this will be a race only setup as it mounts the stock strut bars solid in place hopefuly eliminating wheel hop.
I only have the basic shape welded up now butit should be done in a few weeks. maybe jeff will get some pics posted so everyone can see.

your going to make me one right??? but i will run the fucker on the street...

Re:front crossmember crx
 

maybe i will make you a street friendly version($$$) i dont want you to break a race only model and give me a bad rep.

Beau

Re:front crossmember crx
 

ok if break it will be "doing something stupid i shouldnt have done" so its not your fault, you will just need to reweld it ;) no bad rep

Re:front crossmember crx
 

Sign me up!! I dont mind being a guinea pig for a discounted rate!!! ;D

Re:front crossmember crx
 

woa woa im not making these to sell just trying a experiment maybe if it lasts along time with out breaking i will make a few to sell as a group buy. but im not going to sell any tell i get some time on it for testing

Re:front crossmember crx
 

thats cool, im fine with not paying you for it ;D

Re:front crossmember crx

Re:front crossmember crx
 

like i said before this one is a test. Maybe i'll make some as a group buy, but please dont hold your breath.

Beau

Re:front crossmember crx
 

my car will be avaliable for test fitting and prototyping very soon. well soon as i find another car, might get the Trecel for hella cheap :o

Re:front crossmember crx
 

dustin you should just sell me your car and drive that sweet tercel all the time ill give you 800$

Beau

Re:front crossmember crx
 

my sister bought a 87 Civic, so i might just steal the Trecel till i can find a truck or a 1st gen CRX...

Re:front crossmember crx
 

so you're not even using rod ends on your race version? I am going to be making a streetable version real soon, that uses rod ends on the stock rods. if I get it worked out well enough, I've thought about building a few for other people. we'll see how it goes though. wont' have time to play with it until after xmas. I also may try to make a tubular xmember for the rear of my wagon, to reduce weight a little more. the one in the rear now is pretty heavy.

Re:front crossmember crx
 

right now im not sure what im going to do, rod ends or not

Beau

Re:front crossmember crx
 

update i orederd some 8900lbs rod end links the x member is finished basicly just need to make some new strut rods and weld some brackets onto the x member and it will be done. turbohf will be prototyping this one so when he takes ownership of it maybe he will post some pics.
