whoa, been away for a while it seems.

olcorrolas, yes i do know what a clubman is and i do know why a watts links is used instead of a panhard rod, i am sure you do too to call me out, but i dont feel the need to explain it here.

on the topic of watts links, a some of the cars i have seen them on (falcons i think) have hem monted wrong, with the "chassis" link ends mounted at the same height, can you tell me why this is the wrong way to do it?


if i was custom building a live axle, i would definately use a watts link, i dont think it would add much unsprung weight, apart from the centre link really, and that wouldnt be heaps.
i still may even put one in my AE86 if it can be done easily.

and no, i have never seen a de-dion rear axled car go around a corner, from what i have heard they are a fairly good setup, im pretty sure the better fraser clubmans use them in place of the live axle.
