Hi All, It has been a long time since my last post and there seems to have been an incredible amount of change. I hope you are all well and still enjoying your Vipers. I need some help / advice.

I am trying to source a pair of front Upper control arm pivot bars for my 1997 GTS and a right hand front steering knuckle, does anyone have such items in good condition or have you sourced recently? I am being told the pivots are discontinued!

Any comments welcome, I hoopoe to make some of the club events this year, parts permitting!

Hi Ade did you go to Le Mans? Hopefully see you once the car is back on the road. Braked hard and the right steering knuckle lower mount for the brake calliper failed leaving the caliber on the top mount only ......scarey!
