Wide bones.

[dogwood]

Well pointed out about the steering rack Ronnie,
I hadn't actualy thought of that.

Think I may look into what Chris actualy said about the ideal rack length.
I could then move the brackets out by that much.
I'm not worried about beefing up the brackets, I tend to overengineer anyway

I could also use the adjuster on the top bone to make up the 15mm I'm looking for. Then I would only need to remake the lowers.

Any other comments appreciated

by widening the track you will alter the Ackerman angle
this may cause some tire scrub on the front but i dont know if it is enough to be relevant as these sort of cars dont do 35,000 miles a year as a rule
you should be able to alter the steering arm angle should you find you need to with a bit of heat and a bar
