Beam conversion
- Thread starter Jonesy
- Start date
Are you looking for something like this? I built this for my car probably 10 years ago. It worked very good. I used the standard combo spindles from Pacific Customs. But it can be changed to work with any spindle. I can probably find the cut files for them depending on what you are going to use for spindles and steering rack.

Yes sir! Or the style that connects to the b column
This is the only style I have. I guess you could use just 1 of the bulkheads and build the arms to suit your chassis. I like the way this suspension rides much better.

Biggest bummer there is clearance for larger tires and compromised steering angle.

There are kits available. I think it was TabZone that had one, but I don't see it as a kit now. Just individual parts.

I had on the old site a full build process,
If you are doing a leading edge car,
I have some buggy works arms you can have,
you will need the Spindles, latest rage sells them or like like @Kraut_n_Rice said Tabzone,
I did the Tabzone front bulk head,
or you can use Send Cut Send,
