Front suspension dilemma

[Edd]

I have a little dilemma with my front suspension set up lol

I have wheels with a ET33

On the rear beam iv cut off the stub axle plate and welded it on the other side of them beam so it pull the wheels in by 8mm each side

like so

the dilemma lies with the front end

My thoughts were to fit rose jointed bottom arms and wind them in 6/7mm from standard, fit alloy adjustable top mounts and put them 6/7mm from standard

Am i just better off leaving it standard on the front ? as there's not much of a chance of the wheels catching on the front

My only worry with this is it might handle like crap due to the rear being narrower ??

Any help ideas/advice would be very appreciated

To get eccentric topmounts to point "fully inward" you'd need to hack the top of the turret up quite a lot.

ahh ok, that's not going to happen lol

how much could you move them in without cutting ?

I cant see it handling that bad, front is a bit wider anyway.

i think the rear track is narrower than the front anyway, and the outside edge of the rear tyres is still in the same place.

lol Great minds think alike? lol

I fitted these topmounts for max caster benefits opposed to camber, but it'll give you an idea of the adjustment you'd get (note these are machined down around the bearing housing too for more clearance)

Edit: Trackdaynova's topmounts, running "upside down", with max adjustment in:

fools seldom differ

mmmm not as much as i thought :(

might just stick the standard bottom arms on and see what its like ?

Unless the wheels are sticking out past the arches I would see how it goes first,
