Kempy,

Welcome to the forum. I guess you've been browsing for a while so you know what's what; if not, plenty of people to help.

I'd recommend Casarva too. I've not used them in this incarnation, only when involved with Luego and they were always helpful.

Why have you chickened out? They are quite simple to make - I've got to make some more for the front of mine to widen the track.

Measure out properly, take your time, ensure all your fishmouths are a good fit, clamp everything up nicely and weld away

See, easy.

ATB

Simon

Which book do you mean, the Haynes Roadster? The original Locost books don't have designs for IRS wishbones.

Haynes roadster m8 got both books and went for the irs as most of my freinds race lighten rods so sierra parts are a plenty! Just found someone that sell plenty of fabri parts 3gecomponents.com is worth a look
