Hi

Does anyone have a picture of the front wishbones used on the Tuscan racers?

Currently building a tuscan chassis based race car, and having a bit of trouble with the front wishbones that I have, more than likely going to make some from scratch. Do they run with ball joints from a specific car or use a different set up?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Don't know if you'd be interested but I have custom built front top wishbones on my car using a third rose joint at the hub and different length arms. The bottom ones are also strengthened. I could stick a pic up if you like as I believe these were engineered as an upgrade part to improve castor and steering geometry.

Hi , I need upper wishbones for my project car too (if you get some made up , let me know and could do a group buy ? ) , I have the lower ones if you want pictures of those ? Has anyone used different hub carriers / uprights ? I was wondering if Tuscan road car ones would be ok ?

Cheers
Geoff.
