    did you leave them the right way round? rear wheels look forward than back like Arrons?

      No I swapped them left to right and upside down.

      The picture is not the best as its fully up on its coil overs and the rear tracking is way out.

      When at the correct height and tracking set its still a little off centre. I think I also slotted the ball joint holes a little to give a little more correction

        ah i see, only because the pic is not taken dead on at the back wheels makes it look that way. Could the holes be cast welded and then re-drilled? too much work?

          I decided not to progress it any further as I managed to find a genuine set of sport arms and I can machine new balljoints that locate the leg correctly.

            All cool, but what is the improvement with this handling/performance wise? The unsprung weight is heigher so that's a disadvantage.
