Tube chassis body mount question

Tube chassis body mount question - 02/01/10 04:14 PM

I planned on running stock glass front and rear but I was concerned with the vibrations of the body being solid mounted to the chassis, so should I use a poly mount or am I just being paranoid? And when cant you run glass ET wise? I never saw it in the rule book.
Thanks
Jason

We mount all fiberglass parts the same as metal parts.Let it all "shake" together.

It wont be a problem... if the chassis is strong it
wont flex much at all... much less than a production
body... dont even worry about vibration... but I mount
the glass with either the stock rubber or put in butle rubber
under it so the glass isnt against any metal
