Kyle:

Funny you should ask that!

It is a C4 based design. The Frame was built by Mid-America, The front end suspension, Rack and Pinion, and Brakes are straight C4.

In the rear is a complete Newman rear end. The half shafts have been narrowed so the rear wheels can have a bit more dish/width. Brakes are C4 with cooling disk already installed. It has a Tru-Trac Carrier with 4.10:1 ring and Pinion gears in the rear.

Hopes this helps.

Thanks for your interest.
