Great work.

Its the reason the 200 stuff made such good sense mate. You can buy rose-jointed adjustable kits for all those suspension arms for very little money for what they are and its a good handling setup. As you've said you build the frame around it. The subframe has 4 pickup points as you can make out in the pics, the frontwards mounts I plan to build into the bottom of the cage then the rears from the top and build from there. Hopefully will all make sense when I can start cracking on....

Cheers mate, hope I can keep going! Where's yours at now?

I finished the chassis just as I was kicked out of my mates unit (not my fault) and it was transferred to my new unit, since then I haven't worked on it. However work on my Carlton's suspension bringing it up to touring car spec has yielded a greater understanding of geometry and add that to the poor weight distribution I decided to totally rethink my method of converting it.

I have the plan and bought the parts I need but have not done anything with it yet, the idea isn't a million miles from your setup though. PM if you want the details.

Exactly. Toughest challenge is getting it all level and squared up.

Be interested to know how you planning on doing that? Im trying to find someone to make me a jig from some giders

Doesn't poke out too far :cry:

Looks like miles to me! lol

Seats have arrived today, premature I know but they will help with mocking up.
