If you go to ...I think...Spridgetech Inc. They have a front and rear kit
for the Midget that utilizes the Lever arm shock mounting points. I think
the price was something like $400 for the front kit and $200 for the rear
kit. Looked well thought out (Saw it at Carlisle last year next to the Red
Midget that looked like a Porche). I've never bought them so I have no idea
outside of looking at the setup at Carlisle.
No personal interest and all of the rest of the disclaimer stuff.
