Rear Lower Wishbone Orientation

[K4KEV]

the way you have it now will give maximum strength for the direction of travel ie forwards

It's in the amendments, the text on page 73 is wrong:

“The lower wishbones need to be installed with cross brace angled from outside front to inside rear”.
Should read
“The lower wishbones need to be installed with cross brace angled from outside rear to inside front”

IOW, the way you have them now is correct.

Thanks for the help, I'll have a rolling chassis tomorrow (only 6 years since starting the project )

What has happened to the forum btw? Where have all the posts from the other sub-forums gone?

i would say you want the outside front point to have the v end so under drive as its under compression where as the rear single tube is under tension (strongest for drive).

also if you crashed it would deform the wishbone under impact easyer not the chassis

im going to go have a look now to see what way i put mine round?
