Chassis frame and leaf springs
By: Viking68 Date: January 24, 2024, 4:24 pm

Hi all, many thanks for the engine info. Would 60x30 rectangular
box section suffice for a chassis. Also is there a preferred
camber height for the leaf springs?
Regards

60x30x1.6 will be fine. I have about 60mm arch in my springs.

I use a combination of 50x25 and 25x25, both 1.5mm thick but it
really depends on the design and how much contribution you get
from the bodywork.
