what area of steel plate have you guys been getting to do all the chassis plates, suspension brackets and shizzle? wodering wether itd be cheaper to get them ready made or wether i should go the 'i made every single item possible on this car' route lol

at the very least I’d recommend buying prebent suspension brackets as it is important to get them all consistent and accurate, I’ve seem packets of them advertised with the bolt holes drilled which will save you a heap of hassle, there’s also quite a lot of them on a car.

Buy all the platework and brackets ready made, and used the time saved to advance your build in other areas.

You know it makes sense!
