would be great help, thanks v much

Mine isn't quite double wishbone. It has a bottom wishbone but the drive shaft acts as the top one.
Il see if i can find a pic
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

The Sierra semi-trailing arms have been used by Robin Hood and Tiger but it's a pretty crappy solution for a 7 IMO.

I used also the sierra rear suspension in my build. And welded the mean beam into the chassis. Maybe al little bit heavy but it’s bullet-proof. Look
into my photo archive for some pictures.

I have not failed once. I have successfully found ways that will not work!

I made a look-a-like upright. I didn't like the single shear shockabsorber mounting. The rest is like the Tiger Avon. I replaced the inner
mountings from the upper wishbone for camber-principle.
