Hi Guys
Just finished my last rally and had a little 'off' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) into a ditch. Managed to get going again but handling was way out afterwards. The center tape on the sterring wheel was at about 1.30 I fear I may have damaged one or both of the rear arms. Will be taking them off for a look see in the week. I understand rear arms can 'bend', but which way???? do they twist? bend up? bend in? Are there any measurements I can take from certain points to confirm if there's any damage? I'm going to buy a weld in kit for the inner ear and bracing kit, I already have an arm kit but haven't welded it on yet. I need to confirm these arms are straight and true before I weld them on. BTW - Here's a shot of me yesterday before I slid backwards down a ditch about 10miles further on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Now that's how you take a hairpin.... nice and tight and sideways in (IMG:http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c395/odg743g/bulldog.jpg) |
