![]() Hi, I have just noticed that Rally design do box section wishbones for the locost & they are really cheap. Is there any reason why I can't make one's from 20mm seamless box section with a 2mm wall ? I am mainly concerned about clearance issues as the area is a little bigger. Assembly should be easier as well. I hope !

Sorry but no, Rally design's wishbones are not made of box section tubes, but "Flat Oval Section" tubes, which is completely different. ![]() ![]() A lot of wishbones are made of flat oval section tubes tubes, as they are more aerodynamic (I know, not a major issue for our seven-like car!), and also, look neater than round tubes. Honestly, I have never seen box section wishbones, I'm not sure it exists, so perhaps there is a good reason for that. And, if it has any importance, it will not look good either (imho ![]() And I as said above, seamless tubes might be a bit overkill, but I would use at least ERW steel tubes for my wishbones. Hope this will help ![]()
