de dion tube

[craig chima]

Looking for a straight and true de-dion tube for SCCA EP race car. Let me know if anyone has a spare that they might have lying around. Thanks. Craig (330) 807-0742 or chima97@aol.com

Craig,

I don't have one available, but make sure you get the upgraded De Dion, we have broken two of the older style! The new ones have thicker tubing, eliminated the through the tube shock mount, gusseted the other shock mount tube, and better looking welds!

My recommendation, from having had two break in a race, go get a new one, put corrosion prevention (like WaxOil) inside of the new one and you have eliminated a failure point.

Oh, we have broken a front spindle also, and I watched my son's front wheel proceed him down the straight away at MSR Houston, put the upgraded Caterham front spindle kit in or at least the Dave Bean spindles!
