Wishbones

[Alan Whitaker]

Hi All.
Anybody know the difference between the S1 (2.8 V6) and the V8 top and bottom front wishbones, I see there is a difference but is it the track is wider or is it just how they were made. Pictures side by side would hepl

Track is wider by 40mm or so on V8S.
Its eask to spot the difference with the top wishbone as standard V6S has a curve in the wishbone tube near where it meets the chassis, V8S tubes are straight.

Will dig pic out shortly of V8S wishbones.

Rear trailing arms are also wider track on V8S there's a thread somewhere with a few pics in it of the various trailing arms.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for that, Is the wishbone shorter then to give the 40mm.

The V6S wishbones are shorter yes - placing the wheel hub further inboard.

Hi Chris.
Thanks for that, I did see the shape is different as well, maybe just a design change by TVR.
