|
|
| The lot we run events on has some elevation changes that could lead to scraping on the bottom of the chassis. I was thinking of placing 1/6" HDPE tubing halves on the bottom tube rails to prevent damage to the chassis. My question is whether or not this will effect the chassis handling? |

| That should not affect your handling as the chassis tubing is significantly stiffer than HDPE. There is a company that makes exactly what you are looking or (although I'm not sure exactly what plastic is used). I don't remember which company it was but maybe someone who knows will chime in. |
