The top ones are on a Terrapin, NOT a GTM. On this one, an adapter screws into the upright where the balljoint usually would. This then bolts thru' the rose joint.

Hope that helps.

I was planning on using Metro uprights - GTM were happy to sell be the threaded bushes from the end of their upper wishbones. I sold them to someone on here not so long ago.

Doh! Had I thought that through it would obviously not need a ball joint and a rose joint. Interesting that they will sell the threaded bush though - although the pictures at the top of the page indicate a solid wishbone.

My metro uprights arrive the other day. £9.99 from ebay.

They have a ball joint top and bottom and a bolt on steering arm.

Now drawing them up in solid works.

They look ideal. I'm not sure why more people aren't using them?
