is this right
HAPPY EASTER EVERYBODY!
i hope you are all having a good easter? im not, as i have a suspension problem, can you guys take a look at these photos and tell me whether or not i
have put this together properly, im a little confused as the build manual is a little confusing and worded i little mind bogglingly
im not too sure whether the top wish bone is on the right way round, can someone clarify for me. i also need to know the torque of the nyclon nut that
is on the inside of the cycle wing bracket, that bolts to the upper wishbone ball joint?
thanks all
Alex

do you mean like this? if this way is right, isnt the front long bar of the wish bone a little close to the springs?

That looks about right for the castor, which is wy they were wrong before. They should be ok like that, assuming dax's usual good build quality.
Glad to see you're getting on with it. When are you hoping to sva?

that looks better Alex, it shouldn't catch the spring though as the wishbone will rise once the car is lowered to the ground.
i'd check with a dax owner though just too be sure.

Yup, seconded!

You'll have to take me out in it then! Give you a chance to show off all that expensive dax gear you've got! I'll return the
favour once mine's built. One day in the distant mists of time......

on bit by bit
