My 4x4 Kit car is commencing

Wow, see what you mean Ronnie. Steering rack could be squeezed in around that engine mount, but not sure its going to sit at the correct angle to the hubs. But the steering column? Well thats going to take quite a few UJ's to twist around the engine to meet up with the drive input. I'm assuming Correl will be using the power steering rack off the donor car?

he is going to have to move the front wheels back by the looks of it. there is no way the drive shafts at the front are going to be froward enough to meet the hubs.

[deezee]

If the front hubs and wishbones move back to the middle of the engine compartment, then they'll need redesigning surely? Also its kind of going to make a mess of the pedal area. Wonder how this will handle with the track being 30cms wider and the base 45cms(?) shorter

[correl]

Yes the drive shafts mean the front suspension has to come back a little and the steering rack is going where it goes on the donor car behind the engine so lots easier and the rack goes at the same height as the rear engine mount if you look in the photos it will be easy

[correl]

Well I have started on the engine mounts but due to mothers day it holding me back from getting on with them lol. Dam fake days lol just excuses to waste kit car budget money lol

Correl, first time of reading this post and I'm really impressed so far, refreshing to see something really different. Nice work.

Cheers
