Locust front wishbones
Hello. I have a White rose Locust, built in 98. It has the original old style cortina uprights and front suspension setup. I'd like to change to
a nicer wishbone setup. I know there was a setup available to buy from White rose at the time but obviously these aren't available anymore.
I've looked on the locust enthusiasts website but that looks pretty dead now. Anybody any idea where I could find a setup, what other cars
wishbones would fit etc? Cheers

Can’t help with a ready made solution but I believe the locust used the complete Cortina front subframe? If that is the case it should be possible to
creat a lightweight subframe using box section steel as used in locost chassis’s incorporating mounts for top and bottom wishbones and a top mounting
for a coil over . The car may then need an IVA test due to chassis modification in which case it may be better to build or buy a locost or Haynes
chassis ?
