    Yup, takes a bunch more detailed analysis... but it deserves a look if someone wants to reduce weight.

    Minimal marginal returns for the $ and effort tho...

    That's my concern, especially when you look at "The Easy Route." You're going to save a bunch of weight there over a host of other set ups, and it's all low-hanging fruit. By the time you've made it to looking at spindles for weight, you should have already shed off a lot more unsprung weight than you're going to get out of spindles.

    But if there's motivation and money enough for the task, hell yeah, go for it. I hope it comes out well. These cars are nothing if not opportunities for people to realize their own visions of how to build them.

    Best,
