hi andy s
your triumph axle car eny pics of rear diff mounting at the nose end
i am now hunting for a gene for power in the garage bloke in work has a 2.2kva
£60.
going to buy mini brazing kit botles last 3 hrs cont use same as heating&fridge boys use i was going mig weld all the joints for the tunnal then braze to the frame
eny chassis members i cut out i can braze new ones back in long winded i know
but with me living above a shop and the garage 100 mtre away all i can think of
on the frount of the chassis is the caster built in to the pick up points looks odd
mikedao
I will see what I can do at the weekend regarding the pictures for the Diff mounting.
Mine also has some very interesting geometry for the front Caster - one side is positive and the other is probably neutral :o Goodness knows what it would have been like at speed it's horrible.
On the S1's 2's and B+ type chassis the caster is all wrong and measures typically about 3.5 degrees rather than the 5-7 degrees used by the Donors and the Lotus cars that also use the same upright.
Both of my cars will be having new fabricated wishbones anyway - One will use Cortina uprights as per Westfield and the other will have the Triumph uprights but use Caterham/Ford spaced Hubs.
There is lada/Fiat Track rod end that fits the Triumph upright so that the Camber can be adjusted as it is with the Westfield set-up.
Cheers
Andrew
thanks for that andy s
i will seach the web for pics of westfeild front susp
i will give you some peace now and post next week
did you get e mai on susp the trans tunnal idea you did spot on
mikedao :D
I had a quick look under the car and the diff mounts onto the triumph sub frame affair that has rubber mounts and this sub frame is bolted to the chassis. So similar to how its in the donor
Cheers
Andrew
