MA61 wishbone IRS

[VA61DETT]

Hey, That is a very tidy mod!
How dose the offset for the wheels go?

Wish I thought of that before my effort....

Looks like you've put in a fair bit of work, don't forget your camber correction, did you not consider fitting those alloy wishbones, still I can see you have saved doing the frikken shock towers.
Next time I would make a tubular frame/brace to mount the tops of coilovers, workwise wouldn't make much difference tho.

To correct track I should use 46mm off set.
To thechuckster, when I'm finished with the sheets I was going to make some seat covers for you but I think everybody else would want some too.

[VA61DETT]

Yer, the strut towers look like a lot of work.
I still haven’t decided what to do about the suspension,
was thinking of cutting down the spring seats & making some kind of coilover bracket.

The lovely ally wishbones belong to a friend, going on a custom rod.

If ya ever in need of a spare diff, I have one of the MA70 ones floating around.
It was my first choice for the upgrade, but had trouble tracking down the CV's.

I thought I best put up some pics without rust.

Dude that looks frackin' pro! Nice work

Is your fuel-filler door now round?

[Crambo]

Yeah, I did that for larger flares that won't have that cutout around the door, they are modified front flares.
This is with the original rear end but with the new axle I will have to reshape them again to lower the arch and stretch them just a little wider and due to the difficulties of making them removable I may fibre glass them on.

you ever finish this crambo?

[Crambo]

The basics of it is finished, hand brake cable to set up and rear brakes to fit on.
Been a little occupied with the front end of the car.

IIRC front offset will be 28mm and rear, to tuck the wheels in, will be 46mm.
The wheels on there are 23mm offset.



I'm actually working down the back end ATM doing the exhaust at the diff.

[Slowvac]

Thats alot of work at the rear. Well done!

Cheers

[rsdeo]

Great stuff. Really like what you did.

[Crambo]

Hey Steve, this is a bump for you.

[marvis]

That's a fair amount of extra track.

I'm curious to see how the arms sit when it's on the ground.

[Crambo]

This pic I have is on the wheel dolly but should suffice.
