Viper, u mentioned at the beginning of this thriead that the Tiger rear wishbones pre-stress the bushes. Could you explain a bit further- I was thinking of designing my upper wishbones similiar to tigers- but I dont want to overlook something.

BTW I see that Tiger suggest making your own rear uprights- is this because the original sierra ones cant be used - too difficult to modify perhaps?

Thx chris

It's not the design of the wishbones that is the problem, its the poor quality control at Tiger, on the wishbones supplied to me by tiger the "eyes"(for want of a better word) that hold the bushes are out of allignment, so when you put the bolt through the first one you have to force the wishbone aginst the bush to get the second one lined up, so loading up the bushes . in my mind it can't be a good thing.
any help?

Yeah that puts my mind at rest- not perhaps a ringing endorsement of Tigers quality control!
