Track style drop outs

[MADDAWG]

Any ideas on replacing hook drop outs to track style ?

Cut, grind, weld?

Yes I'm going to have to cut old ones , find or make some and weld them on . Should I try and make my own , if so any ideas ? Or where can I get some ?

junk bmx bike would probably be the easiest source for horizontal dropouts.

Try contacting barnbikes. He's been laser cutting some nice sprockets, I'm sure he could cut some dropouts to what ever shape you need.

Walker - the thought has crossed my mind .

Ren.Man - thanks I'll give them a try .

Anyone else done any , or links on how to go about it ?

I just make my own out of 3/16" steel. Draw it out, cut it, and use it.

If you search there's a couple companies that sell dropouts.
Do like Devon said, "draw, chop, and weld."
