I've seam welded the wishbones today at work. Also threw them in one of the ovens we make for 45 minutes at 200 degrees and then slowly allowed them to cool - so they are now seam welded and de-stressed. Will paint tomorrow and fit the Prothane bushes.
Yeah - not sure why they went like that first time round. Dead smooth this time though... Not gonna powder coat them - haven't got the time or mponey to do all the bits i want.
everyone told me not to bother, should I belt the curb it'll wreck the shell... (I did it anyway of course )
yeah thats what I figured, anyway, if I clip the curb that bad then sod it, re-shell the engine (again) its not a great body anyhow.
It might not make any - but it might make a bit. To be honest it's cost nothing - only 5 mins of time i get paid for anyway. So it seems stupid to put in solid top mounts, posh coilovers and Poly bushes and potentially have 'some' flex in the wishbones. And Motorhead - the ovens we make don't do bread. We have 3 that VW Motorsport forged pistons pass through, 4 that Seat intercoolers pass through for drying, 1 that williams F1 carbon fibre nose cones get cured in, 1 that Ferrodo race brakes pads get de-embrittled in....
HIJACK! I have wider track courtesy of my et 24 bbs wheels/ Why does my car now handle crap? The higher et I use, the better it handles. The best I have had is on et 38 wheels of the same diameter (15 inch). It now understeers badly even with my quaiffe.
