Not wishing to take this off topic but what sort of suspension setups are your guys using on your cars and what sort of caster,camber, toe settings, spring rates etc are you using?

cheers....Nige

Within certain parameters, surely they will be specific to each car and driver?

...unless it's a stock Cobra, with nowt adjustable!

Would changing over to Gerry's coil over suspension give you what you need.? I think its a more adjustable unit. Certainly mine sits lower at the front without problems.

There is more adjustment with the tubular setup, but I found it would still only give around 7deg caster, which is correct for an original, and an MGB, from memory.

Nope, not as they came out of the showroom. Rubber- bushed wishbones etc.

Well
You could remove the lever arm, fabricate an upper bracket to hold the top of a coilover and incorporate an upper wishbone spindle, adjust the height of the pivot point to improve geometry, and fabricate a pair of upper wishbones, weld a pickup on the spring pan for the bottom of the coilover, fit negative camber lower wishbones and if you want adjustable camber slot the holes and make a cam adjustment there, cut the anti roll bar drop link, thread it and screw on a rod end to get rid of the horrible lower joint, select a suitable damper and figure out a spring rate.

And after lunch go for a drive

Or fit the Hawk / Hoyles set up!
