    That one with the gold wheels doesn't do a thing for me.

    You won't find a stock frame that will get you down that low, you need to build your own. In fact, a stock T bucket front end setup won't get you that low, you need a combination of a dropped axle and the spring mounted very low on the radius rods. I have no kickup on the front but the back is kicked 12 inches.

    As the guys mentioned, you can look at the Project $ 3K thread to see the how the whole thing worked out. I'm flattered that you like the stance on mine, thank you.

    Oh, my body is a Speedway. In my opinion it is a lot heavier layup than the TP like my Son has, and much straighter right out of the box.
