What parts of the 818s kit is dependent on the donor used? The only part I'm certain of is axles. Is the frame different in any way, mounting points, etc? I'll be using many parts from my '07rs donor, but some other things are going to be pieced together. In a few weeks I'll need to have all my info in as my production date is rapidly approaching. Thanks.

Thanks. Read posts in the 818 section on donors. This has been talked about a lot. They should answer your questions. Also ask for the digital manual if you kit is coming soon. It will answer too.

I've looked through the donor section, and regularly check the forums and haven't seen anything definitive. I'll have to get a hold of a manual to see if it's listed there.

Hi guys - to give you a quick answer, the chassis never changes (only bare or powdercoated). It's only a few components like the axles, seat mounts, exhaust adapters, throttle pedal mount that change from one donor type to the next.
