Looks good and easy to build/weld! I didn't expect it to be.

You wouldn't happen to have the measurements do you? I think i should use my own math knowledge on this one. As soon as my 360 runs (the neverending story...), i want to change the rear-suspension.

Unfortunately I don't have any dimensions to give.

If I remember correctly someone from 300power.com purchased that blue car in the lower pic.

You might want to ask dimensions from a guy named Peter Schmidt @ 300power.com, he has a boxed/strengthened watt-link axle with 4-links in his 360. There are lot's of pics in this topic.
