Class 7... to cut or not to cut the frame.

[philofab]

I'm building a 94 extra cab toyota and I'm unsure of weather I should cut the rear frame rails. The truck will have a four link, 9", 3.4 V6, uniball a-arm front suspension. I'd really like to get rid of them for bump travel. My score rulebook says you have to have a complete frame in Class 7? SNORE and BITD don't require this do they? Will I be legal in SCORE sportsman?

If I do keep the rear frame rails is it legal to pie cut them and move them up?

Cut the frame and run it in the new Score mini truck class.

[movindirt]

SCORE sportsman is just an open non pro class. As long as you pass safety inspection you should be good to go. I don't think moving the rails up is legal. I know there has been a few discussions on here about 7 trucks that possibly have illegal frame mods.

What is the new SCORE mini-truck class? I have a current rule book that does not mention it.

score mini trophy = bitd 7200

[dezerts10]

score mini trophy = bitd 7200

but is it official though?

[idealer]

I hope! score needs 7200!

SCORE rules need to be updated. Don't even bother with the frame rails from the factory-cut em' out.

[philofab]

What have I started? :)

I'd really like the truck to be legal in all series... If I decide to sell it, it will be worth slightly more.

So Justin? You work for Savage? What can you tell us about mini-trophy? Can I assume this is a 2011 class?

Call Bill savage and be sure. At the end of the day if anyone questions it at inspection, "Bill savage aproved it, I spoke to him personally." Goes a very long way..
