custom 4 link suspension - mg midget

[stevenM]

Hi folks

I'm trying to design a 4 link rear end with a panhard rod for my mg. Hopefully all quite straightforward but trying to source suitable coilovers for the rear, space is tight so to avoid massive turrets I'm trying to find reasonably compact (read short) coilover units. Any ideas? Was thinking of using westfield std adj units?

Cheers
Steven

assuming that the units will mount directly to the axle, their length will have a direct relationship to the potential amount of suspension travel (and adjustment) available.

hi this info may be of use if u look at back end of a bond bug it uses 4 trailing arms plus panard rod and a simple solid antiroll bar u bolted to bottom arms also short coilovers the owners club reproduce the arms plus bushes and panard rod very cheaply less than £70 all in when i bought them a few years ago!! happy fettling rob
