Hi

Finally bought a kit car - knew I wouldn't have time for complete build, so started with a nearly complete car, original build thread on JPSC has been continued, as per link below. It's a live axle originally from 1999, running a modified crossflow. Currently enjoying fiddling around with various small jobs and hope to have it through IVA in a few months' time.

P.S. If anyone knows the front lower wishbone bolt dimensions that would save me taking them out first - they are too short as nut only just fits on end and Mr IVA will want some thread showing. Also assume they are in a sleeve? and are they threaded full length or just part?

Thanks, Chris

hi chris,

welcome!
i can't help you with the your bolt dimensions but do upload some pictures of your car,

there seems to be not many activity on this part of the forum though, but don't be discouraged by that!

good luck with your car

Thanks
Thread is via link below, lots of pics
Martin at Raw has advised M12 with 1.75 pitch and ive gone for 70mm although 65 was prob ok for iva/one thread showing.
just need to remember to tighten only when off jack
boring i know, but possibly useful to someone!

Assuming bolt lengths havent changed over the years - Wayne (iB22le) kindly measured these for me a few years back http://locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=169830

many thanks
have put in forms for iva, just need to dry run it and then rob a bank for the fee!
