    Due to a great point about future tubing diameter rules and regulations in our race sanctioning bodies rulebook's that DSI recently brought to our attention, we must build another chassis.This chassis is for sale . It is a 2 seat 151 proof Trent Fab car with all of the drivetrain mounts and subframe built already . If anyone is interested call us ,pm us ,or stop by the shop.

    In the meantime while we wait for materials and a time slot between customers to build another chassis....we will try to keep you entertained with some of our upgraded parts and products.

    We have recently swicthed from QA1 rod ends to FK rod ends .FK rod ends are made in America they are a little more expensive than the QA1's but we feel it will be money well spent.

    That sucks! All that time and work, wow. So what, now everyone with their old rigs also have to completely scrap everything and start over. That would really suck for someone like me who a buggy like that would be a once in a lifetime investment.

    That's a nice looking WJ you have there in your shop, how much would you sell it for? Crunched the rocker panel on mine so I need to get a new one now.

    Derek was trying to save weight...we have talked extensively with someone from the KOH authority. We will continue with the 1.5" chromoly build and this is the car we will use to race the 2010 KOH race.We have started the 1.75" car and will continue to build that as well.

    I heard a rumor in Vegas last week that Jessi was joining the Trent Fab team. So is Ridgway going to co-dawg for her or Derek?

    you guys should let me co-drive with Jessi....
    I always have the ability to say something to offend someone somewhere.

    It's people like you that make me look smart.

    No, don't take it personally. I offend everyone, it's my gift.

    I haven't had the chance to meet you guys personally or do business with you, but when I start throwing parts on the rig you will be the first shop I'll call for anything I decide not to do myself. I have yet to meet an unhappy Tfab customer and your work is amazing. Good luck with this rig @ KOH. I'll be rootin for you guys. Big power... nice chassis lines... and a bullet proof drive train. What's not to like .
