Hi I never put any photos of my build three on here but if you look at Stot's build thread you will see lots of pictures of his wishbones etc.
His where made by Talon and are the same as mine.
Regards Mick.

Thanks Mick, I read Stots build last week (great build) my upper rear wishbones are about 40-50mm shorter than my lowers so if I extend the adjusters by 40mm it should in theory make them of equal length.
I’ll try them out without shocks in and cycle through the travel to see how it affects camber.
Cheers
Ben

Hi yours must be completely different from mine.
I can't see how your upper wishbones will move from where they are now, by making the adjusters longer it seems to me that if you have them set at the moment with 1% neg but not enough thread left in the wishbones by making them longer will leave them as they are but with more thread in the wishbones.
Equal length wishbones is not a good setup shorter uppers is the best.
Regards Mick.
