I chose the position from page 44, after looking at other builders build pics etc & also thinking of any possible torsional tension the bones have when car is under load ( tho this was purely my own interpretation of the effect ) when travelling forward, as the car won,t be in reverse that much etc etc

Hope this helps, & being totally honest would also appreciate any thoughts on this, interesting question

cheers

tringle front single leg to the rear that way the single tube at the back is under tension and will not bend and the tringle (linked at 2 chassis points) is under compresion when the hubs are pulled forward under driving force.

that make sence?
