Front upper suspention arms orientation
 

Hi
I know this was somewhere else in the Forum previously before it got hacked by the low life. Could some body please tell me which way they should be fitted.
a)Short arm to the front or back?
b)Threaded part facing up or down?

Heya

Carnt remember which goes front long or short but they are mounted so the upper ball joint is angled upwards

Make sence?

long arm of the upper wishbone goes to the front of the car.

Hi
I have just managed to look at the book again, yes the long arm goes to the front but the threaded part faces down the way. I hope I am right!

Axle,
do you mean it goes down from the chassis towards the wheel direction?

andy

sorry, i got that ar$e about face :o
the thread goes down from the wheel towards the chassis, with the long arm of the wishbone at the front.

cheers
andy

:o Hi
Yes you are right Andy, my little brain worked it out, if you look at the book page 63 last sentence it tell you that the longer arm goes to the front. on this basis the threaded bit will be pointing upwards pointing towards the car.

Hope this helps!

NOOO see above
