Kit Delivery Pending...

[jezzaaa]

Hi All - so I had a call from Krazyhorse today...my kit is ready to be delivered, and they've offered me 2 dates next week. This is much sooner than I was expecting generally, but hey ho.

Obviously I'm delighted it's going to be here...but it's not the best timing. I'm away for the next 2 months so I won't be able to start building until the new year. Anyway, I digress...

So I need to sort the garage out for the delivery, and I wanted to know the dimensions of the chassis as delivered...i.e. without the wheels/wheel arches/suspension etc attached. I've ordered the wide body chassis, Anyone know?

Ta,
J.

I would have thought the supplier has that info to hand?

He probably does...but he's closed at the moment and I was just asking in case anyone on here knows. The Caterham website only shows dimensions including the wheel arches etc.

I just looked at a supplier selling Caterham wheel arches, and it shows the width of each wheel arch is 285mm. The width of the rear of the SV chassis with wheels/arches, according to Caterham website, is 1685mm. So I guess 285mm x2 (580mm) off 1685mm leaves about 1115mm.

Gotcha.

Yes, I think your assumptions on those dimensions will see you right.
