with some friends, I think I have found a
solution in the form of Orbital
Motorsport’s rear updated ARB which
has inboard facing Rose-jointed drop
links that will clear the stub axle bolts.
Plus this completes the race spec
suspension package underneath
the car.
One step, two step
Small progress is better than no
progress and even with hiccups and
setbacks along the way, if I can stay
positive and proactive the issues can be
overcome and now I can definitely see
light at the end of the tunnel. It’s going to
be so worth all the effort that’s gone into
it all so far. If any of you are struggling
with motivation or are overwhelmed
with the bigger picture on your build try
the bite size approach and hopefully
before you know it we will all be up and
running and back out to play sooner
rather than later.
Mike’s made up a brace to support
the weight of the two turbos...
Pedal box now in place, and
it’s not coming out again...
Custom seat rails made up and welded
in place to mount the new bucket seats.
