    Watching a master at work just gives the hobbyist so many different ideas as they create their own cars!! Thanks, PS, You have a great forklift operator!!!

    Wow! That was not only a lot of work, but you really have to know what you want to do, and how everything works together. You're a great teacher!

      It just comes from experience. Each time I build a suspension I learn something new that I can apply to the next one.

    Again great educational video. Anyone building a care needs to be a mathematician, engineer and designer. Thanks for your time and teachings.

    Beauty and functionality ! I love that about your work - the esthetics - the whole thing just looks so good and works perfectly on top of that. This isn't just great mechanics - it's art. I've mentioned this before - but I would love to see you build a show car. I know that that's a lot of work - but we can only hope ; ]

      Maybe one day. I’ve built high end stuff before that was shown and did very well. But that kinda stuff is so much money!

      @@LGKustoms Yeah I understand - I'm just saying I think it would be cool to see what you would come up with and see the proses. Again - for simple mods - your work is very well executed and pleasing to the eye. It's the artist in you seeking expression. Anyway - I'm glad I get to watch you do your thing - thanks.

    Very well explained Lee. I didn’t realise that the pan hard bar needed to move that smidgen with the ark of travel. But it makes sense the way you’ve explained that situation. I like the way you tied both c notched together for strength and to also double up as top mounts for the bags. I’m sure Steve will be happy with the look and function of that rear end. It’s going to be a very cool ride. Cheers take care.

    Metric measurement is much easier and more accurate so why is nth America holding out. Height of C-notch turned out to be self explanatory. How much torque is going through that long skinny tailshaft

    • @chrisallen2005
      @chrisallen2005 Před 3 měsíci

      He is Canadian. Probably quite high functioning in using the metric (SI) system. Just chose not to. I use both but I agree when accuracy is necessary I use metric units.

    • @LGKustoms
      @LGKustoms  Před 3 měsíci

      I learned metric in school, but in the real world everyone in Canada uses inches and pounds. Regardless I’m not sure what measuring system I use has to do with anything. If I cut one inch, or 25mm off the end of a tube, the tube still ends up being the same size and able to do the same task.
      As for the driveshaft. This car has a mild 302 and very skinny tires. Its main purpose is cruising, not drag racing, so there is a very slim chance of twisting the driveshaft.

      @user-dc8gu7qc9g Před 3 měsíci

      @LGKustoms I'm 76 and don't need a calculator but time moves on. A mm is as thick as a fine marker and the need not to look for fractions is time saving and more accurate . . . once you convert to metric there's no going back. Regardless of the archaic measuring I'll still be a staunch subscriber and like your work
