thanks for all the info if i have to i will use a hevy duty clutch if avalible.
here are some pics of my swing arms fabed out  its coming along great
what is nice it will be easy to switch to micro stub hubs when im ready
i want to build these and sell them take note of the car o liner frame rack i have for a jig table
i also have a table i welded togther for just building the frame. i put it on a motorcycle lift makes it nice to raise and lower

Those look just like the Desertkart trailing arms??  If I'd known you wanted to use them, I could have sent you the bent ones I have.  1st Time you get 1' air the will bend and top of tire will be leaning in.  Try putting some light plate across tubes or a diagonal.  Looking at arms from back, they twist clockwise.

What kind of shocks are you going to use on your front a-arms.

[trans man]

Your making some progress.

fox coil overs all around  i plan on weighing the frame wonce i am done fabing
should be 18 to 20 inches of travel
any suggestions ?

[trans man]

Just an idea for you, You could run Fox 2.0 air shocks and save some $$$. Looking at your car, I don't see the need for running coilover shocks IMO.

The man on DTS to talk to about Fox air shocks is DS race. He knows those shocks inside and out.

the arms and frame are all out of 1 1/4 inch od DOM tube its pretty strong stuff
i may just add plate to the arms if they bend..... i can straiten them thats a car o liner frame rack with a measuring system the frame is on i done think you can get a better jig to build on i didnt build the frame on it i got it after but it came out so square useing the jig table i welded together myself .
every thing at this point is just tacked and i am adding bracing to the front arms too.

[trans man]

Cool!
What's the wall thickness on your 1 1/4 DOM?

[magnum4598]

i was told coil overs were cheaper on ebay lol
i will do the research before i buy.
im very happy with how everything is coming out....... its awesome .... you know when you get that feeling its just the way it was ment to be its cool....

[trans man]
