That car is a late 2000 or early 2001. Gloss black '96 spindles 16 5/8"ls lower 17 5/8" rs lower. The uppers I can't remember right off, maybe like 11" lf and 10 1/2 rf? There are some differnt options you can run for spindles and stuff but this was done after I got rid of mine

did u like it? I ran it a few times i know it always stays tight,finally got it to free up coming off the corner but its tight goin in..I went to a stiffer right rear spring and moved the panhard bar at the pinion,But its like its not wanting to rotate quick enough...I went by the percentages and bite by the steve smith,joe garrison book..I dont know if there is a difference with the regular basic setup for the flex grt??

#2100 and up should be no older than 2003, Having been a GRT dealer I have dealt with customers with chassis #1781 (2001 under-rail) #2275( late 2003 under-rail)#2484(2005 under-rail)#2979(2008 under-rail).

Our older GRT has the Black 96 spindles, 16 5/8" LL, 10" LU, came with 17 5/8" RL and 10" RU...We changed the RL to 19" and RU to 8" on outside of uprights...The driver says the car will turn in much better for him now...

What height are the 96 Black spindles? I have a 2005 GRT frame and have a bunch of parts and want to see if I have the right stuff or will have to buy the stuff I need.

when scaling the car would u have to put the 4 bars in a certain hole for all sides and does the the axle need to be slid out,i have heared of this before and do u unhook the 5th coil?? Thanx and how much bite u think i should start out on this car?? Motor is a steel head dont know if i need to go with the steve smith grt book on specs.it says 150 i believe that may be to much???
