Fitted one to the front of my Avon and transformed it!

Now just had one fitted to the rear and will know how good it is when i arrive at Blyton on the 21sy(first outing)

I will elaborate here in the open rather than by U2U is thats okay madteg.

I did my calculations and decided that 5/8 16swg steel tube was what I wanted. Ended up buying some BS 6323 Part 4 : 1982 CFS 3 from Ringwood Precision metals which has a minimum yield of 360MPa. Just about on the limit from my calculations but it seems to have been okay, T45 might be better just to be on the safe side. Mocked it up with some copper central heating pipe first then bent it with my home made tube bender.

I used 5/16 droplinks from mcgill motorsport and slide adjusters from Merlin motorsport. Attached to the wishbone with a little tag off the damper mount. Attached to the top wishbone bracket with a steel tab and plastic pipe clamp reamed out as a bush.









Sorry about the poor pictures!

My car runs the original Sierra arb at the front, however some owners remove it and cinder to tie bars instead as thus us supposedly better.
