panhard or mumford link
Discussion
hi all, im thinking of changing the set up on my 750 formula race car ,despite various suspension settings,it keeps breaking away on the left rear ..the car has a fiat fire engine 1108 cc,in the rear ,transverse ,driving the rear wheels ,and has a de dion tube,but the engine is offset to counterweight the driving position ,so obviously the drive shafts are at different lengths ,it has a panhard rod,from chassis to de-dion,
i would like to make a mumford link mock up first ,the problem seems to be, there is no record ,drawings,or reference regarding this layout, i have drawings , dimensions,etc for the live axle but ,all measurments are for a centrally located diff/axle fixing point ,this,( ithink) would not be suitable for my offset engine ??

HI,..NO NOT UNDER BRAKING,JUST SEEMS TO BE ON FAST RIGHT HAND HAIRPINS ,LEFT CORNER BREAKS OUT ?
I THINK ITS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE PANHARD ROD DIGGING IN ON RIGHT HANDERS ,AND LIFTING THE LEFT ,ANOTHER DRIVER HAS DRIVEN IT AND IT DID THE SAME?,ITS NOT BEEN IN ANY REAR-END SHUNTS ,
