thanks jakobi, but really, i am not having a winge, its just a point, i am really all about helping where i can. i am no fabricator, if i was i would just go ahead and make it up until i got it spot on, but yes it is a possibility to make them for people once i have a correct base to go off, i would just pay someone to weld things. i am in the uk and theres not a lot of parts over here for them, especially that model, so getting a parting out one is a rare thing. and as for the kits well i have looked into it and for some reason i cannot seem to get the site i have seen them on to accept my order. but i will keep trying, and as it says any info would be gratefully received, not just for me but a lot of other gg owners that want to do the change.

Not a problem and I get where you're coming from. I don't know how much coin you have to spend, but I'd be starting here. Even if its just an email asking about sizes. They say they ship internationally and also speak english.

If you like I can go and quickly run a tape measure around with the plastics on, but I think you'd agree that to build one you'll want accurate measurements which imo would mean tearing it back down to just the subbie.

[hotrod]

yeah it would be best to get a more accurate measurement, taking the seat and plastics off, i know the width will be the same but it still would be best to check, so it would only be the length measurements really. would be gratefull.
i went on to greenland mx and looked at a full kit on there, but i dont have that sort of money yet to buy it, although it wouldnt let me create an account to order it anyway, also just got some good info where to but a subframe i will post tommorow how that goes.
and there is also a spanish company that i will add when i get a reply from them who make them that have all of the dimensions from gg. thanks

chris that is absolutely fantastic, thankyou so much. i get everytthing, i have drawn a diagram, apart from 2 measurements, just need clarifying pls, in first details, ya'v said length of rails, 490, then in 3rd and 4th details the top rails, length is 585. could ya just put me straight where am going wrong then i can get sorted. or maybe i am just being thick, anyways i am very gratefull. thankyou.

[hotrod]
