Hi Guys,

Just took of my top wishbones to powder coat again, as they flake on the sharp edges after a few years.
I just had a motorsport customer in to pick some pads up, and he smirked at them, without prompting said "they want making out of tube".
He makes space frames for various forms of motorsport, Ex Pro Drive.
We could engineer a bit more lock in too!

Are we interested??

I'd certainly be interested if the price is right.

Probably, could we have a bit more camber adjustment as well?

Top wishbones are common to the T cars are they not?

Phazed's tubular wishbones were from someone else but I can't find his post about them.

Matt Smith has had the top wishbones of his S modded to include turnbuckle rose joints to adjust camber. Not sure he's releasing them commercially.

Cerbera and mk1 Tuscan are common, T cars are different again.

I would also be interested, to save time and money though these have already been done. Andy at APM had them made for John Wilsons race Cerb.

The cost for one set was prohibitive for me, however I'm sure a group buy would work out much better! The company who actually make them are the best chassis and roll cage fabricators is know! Talk to Andy at APM and he will be able to give you pricing.
