As we have a few maxi/dimma's being built at present and probably more to come I was just wondering who would be interested in a wide track kit for the front?

A few have had the rear wide track sorted by Bridgecraft after I had it done so no point in me trying to sort that.

I've already got something in place with Satchell Engineering if that helps.

306 front end kit;

-Modified subframe
-Tubular wishbones
-406 hubs(to mount a better bottom joint)
-Track rod end adapters
-Spacers for bump steer

Let me know asap if you definitely want one Chris. May be able to sneak another one onto this order - will just need a subframe sending to them sharpish.

As far as I know they have a looong lead time on any work!
Didn't think they were taking anymore work on in fact as they have something like a years back log

I approached Satchell in February before they had all the extra work thrown at them.

yes, the subframe needs a lot of work to clear the engine diff and cc joinnts on a v6 conversion, so ideally if the subframe needs further mods then use your own one.

PM'd you Chris.

I can ring Colin and ask him about your V6 subframe if you like?

when are you hoping to get yours?


with a v6 you're better off talking with them directly, also no need to go wider to use Satchell setup.

Just waiting on everything coming back from the platers. Hoping back end of this week, start of following week.

I think Chris has been looking at doing a dimma himself, hence him wanting the wide schtuff.
