On saturday i mooted my front wishbones and and brake disc assembly (Excuse the technical terminology) but they point 35 degrees inwards. does anyone know why this is?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated!!

how can i post a picture on here? sorry I'm a total novice at this.

Do they point inwards at the top as you look at the car from the front (camber) or point inwards at the front as you view the car from above (toe)?

from above.

thanks for time by the way

I don't have the Haynes Roadster book, but I think it's covered here: fig 5.36 on page 76
As said I don't have the book, but I got that from the Interweb

By the sounds of it you need to fit some track rod extension pieces between the track rod (the rod from the steering rack) and track rod end the ball joint that bolts to the upright. Picture below shows these fitted for illustration.

thanks- but what I'm saying is when its all bolted up. it physically looks like it will not go straight its like the top wishbone is too long? any thoughts? id upload a picture but i don't know how to do it..

problem solved!!! the cowboy who sold me the wishbones has made the top wish bone wrong!!

Are they definately wrong ?
Have you tried swapping them from side to side as they may be handed.

Failing that who made them ?
