From 50's Buick's and Chevrolet pickups through to the later model 60s and 70s muscle cars and yank tanks, Kustom Bitz has a wide variety of experience customizing the drive lines and tailoring the mechanical s of these cars to modernize their steering and suspension so they drive allot better. Whether it be a wild custom or a resto rod we can perform the work to suit your taste and styling.

I set up alot of SoCal I beam front ends, hair pins or 4 bars, I beam axles should steer good. A lot of I beam hot rods don't steer too well, most of the time in those instances the geometry is wrong or the chassis is flexing too much. Yes an I beam axle is a simple front end but there is still alot to be aware of to get it right. I race my model A with an I beam front end at the drag strip and up our local hill climb ....... you can make them steer great .... not like and IFS but still great. So if that traditional look of an I beam is the look you want, then get Kustom Bitz to build the chassis for you.
High quality Hiboy cycle guard brackets custom made to suit in polished stainless steel or Mild Steel. I can roll up the cycle guards as need in Alloy or mild steel.
Kustom Bitz makes most of our own parts however we are quite happy to install parts you already have purchased elsewhere and check their suitability for the application. We can also fit for example a Jag front end or a jag rear end into your chassis so it looks factory or we can customise it for show.
