Suspension SVA evasion by indicators
the_fbi - 11/6/06 at 12:46 PM

Its been mentioned a number of times, especially with regards to the Dax Rush, has anybody got any pictures showing how to evade the radius issues of front suspension/steering components by placement of the indicators and their mountings.

Along the lines of the front indicator stalk mountings being the frontmost bodywork/bumper therefore "protecting" the suspension bits and removing them from SVA testing.

You'll need to mount the indicators on stalks, but the stalks will have to appear to be functional - the Dax "bumper" is a long piece of bar, bent to shape and (afaik) bolted directly to the chassis.

More hassle than it's worth iyam

I have indicators on stalks, the tester totaly ignored them, and tested the complete front suspention with the infamous 100mm ball. No prob's though that part passed. Other bits didn't though, (b*****ds) atb Chippy.
