Favour please, what is your track measurement?

[MPETT]

Hi chaps,
Been having a discussion about tuscan suspension design over on the tuscan forum, and are trying to figure out what changed from the cerbera to the tuscan's design. Fundamentally, i believe the wishbones and rack were the same, but I think the upright may have been tweaked and the chassis was modified, but I doubt it was made narrower otherwise that would upset the geo.

So, could someone with 18" spider alloys have a quick measure of the front and rear track of their cerbera please? Measurement from the outside edge of the wheels please

My 2000 Tuscan front: 1674mm and rear was 1700mm

Cheers,
Martin

Tuscan rack bar is 665mm long, Cerb rack bar is 602mm.

I have a Tuscan rack for sale in the classifieds, it was sold to me as a Cerb rack in error.

Long story short, they changed the design in 2001/2 and used a longer rack. The early ones used the cerbera's rack with the longer arms.

HiYa,

Just measured my “standard” ’01 4.5 with F42/R33 offset and the lengths are
F1435mm / R1480mm to tyre centres.

I was under the impression from the chassis data I've seen the Cerbera was a stretched Tuscan chassis?

Would you mind measuring yours again to the outside edge of the rim? The "middle" of the tyre is so arbitrary and hard to judge. And just to confirm, you have Spiders. Cheers mate.

Other way round. The Cerb came first and the t series chassis used on the tuscan onwards was a shortened version.

Lol I wrote that first and changed it!
