Saturn MX5 Front Upper Wishbones

[spud69]

Hi Andy,

Knew somebody would have spotted the mistake, I have updated the build guide and plans for the front upper wishbone - it looks like i have picked up the wrong wishbone jig when measuring up for the build guide. The correct measurements answers your query. Too much rushing about.

I am just in the process of adding more to the guide, ie diff and gearbox lower mounts, handbrake fixings and cable mounts as well as updated pedal box for the hydraulic clutch and various other things. Will have the updated guide on the website for Monday, it will be marked with rev 2 to be sure you download the correct one.

Thanks Again Andy.....AndyH

I have just drawn up the wishbones on Autodesk Inventor and am wondering if you kept the angles of the tube from the assumed centre line the same as the book e.g. 17.5deg and 29deg? The only reason I ask is that these dimensions push the tubes to the top of the threaded round bar and wonder if they would be better angled in a bit more to bring them down a little to get a gap from the top for welding.

These are the dimensions I have drawn them at but just want to make sure before I manufacture them.

This is the drawing I have done for reference.
