ST Side Rail Kit, 8wd
Use this set of side rails to create your own chassis that features 8wd and maintenance free "chain-in-tube" construction.
Each side rail comes complete with 4" and 3.5" Colson Wheels and all the internal drivetrain components needed to make your chassis roll.
This unique drive system features a custom double sprocket and multiple runs of #25 roller chain on the inside of the tube. All tensioners have been eliminated, reducing weight and the need for maintenance.
This system was battle tested by FRC118 during the 2013 competition season. It proved itself to be robust and reliable!
Kit comes with one side rail only.
Pick your chassis side rail length below or contact us for custom options and side rail lengths.
Use our ladder bar kit and transmissions to make a complete chassis that is lightweight, powerful and simple to maintain.
Weight: 5.6 lbs.
