Look what I've Just Ordered

Monies tight
and times are hard
there going on my credit card
can't wait
being made by offroaddevelopments aka wozsher
£130 all in spacers etc
I'm happy with that
Due back at work tonight for another 6 nights delivering newspapers to shops, but when the postman knocks I feel a sickday coming on.
Transit balljoint has been moved back 16mm so should I believe give 6deg what ever it's called

nothing wrong with that they're essential items

had you spent a fortune on something like a dry sump kit when you have a perfectly in order wet sump, then you'd have to justify it

Nice

Does he doe bottom wishbones too? I need to get my car self centering and I;ve heard the difficulty is due to the bottom wishbones being too far forward, which can be solved using rosejointed suspension and shimming them rearwards in the mounting brackets. Plus they look cool and I want them

No.. the self centering issue is the top balljoint (transit) being too far forward, these have the transit joint moved 16mm rearward thus inducing more caster/castor whatever, they also enable camber to be fine tuned instead of to the nearest rotation of the joint.

Might just be the picture but there doesn't appear to be much of an angle on the top tube for the balljoint.

As the rest tony keep us up to date of how the upgrade goes.

I'd be interested in a set of these but would need them chroming. Anyone any idea of somewhere I can get that done.

Is that something Wozsher can get sorted with the order I wonder? If you read this wozsher could you reply with whether chroming is possible and a price if it is?
