This might be an out there type of question; but could a beam be designed to run ball joint trailing arms etc, but bolt up to a link pin frame head?
If they are built to order would it be possible?
Cheers

Unreal Beam
Just want to say DUB beams are the GO! Bought one off Lyndsay. Fitted the next weekend and fitted perfect. Second to non for quality. Would recomend
to anyone who only wants the best and wants a slamed and narrowed VW in OZ. Pics soon to come on my little project up here in Coffs Harbour. Thanks
again LJ

Here's a 6'' Link pin were the customer wanted to run a top trailing arm on the bottom tube as well to keep it neat and tidy.
So we built the off set into the beam

I forgot to post in this thread, but a couple of months ago I bought a 4.5" DUB beam. This workmanship and quality of these beams are second to none.
If you're tossing up whether to get one of these...go for it. You won't be dissapointed. My mechanic said it was a pleasure to work with as the fit
was spot on.
One very happy and narrowed customer here

A bit over 30 years ago, when my boys wanted to go BMX racing, I made a rack to fit onto the tow-bar to carry the bikes. Soon 'everyone' wanted one,
so we started making them. We called it MAC-RAC, and ended up making thousands of the damned things. Sold out about 25 years ago. There were MANY inferior copies.
I know how difficult it can be when customers say that they can buy a cheaper version of your product. Some people will buy the cheapest, no matter
how much better your one is. However, I find that - in general - most will consider all the options, and not allow price to be the only
consideration.
The important thing in NOT to cut back on quality for the sake of making a cheaper product. Not everyone can make a quality product. My son Tim (then
about 12 YO) came up with the slogan, "Don't buy a slack rack, buy a MAC-RAC". Emphasize the quality.
Cheers, Greg

a bit off topic from the little man's beams, but I was sorting out stuff at my parents place and found our "mac rac", complete with stickers so I
know it's a real one, still looking perfectly serviceable after 25+ years. a nice bit 'o kit you made there greg.
