I decided the best way to make POO handle is to fit the well proven setup of the Racing Escorts, so I sourced some front suspension from a circuit racer.
Below is a gallery of the steps I took to fit front Escort suspension to the Anglia:
|
|
|
|
Holes for the front suspension were drilled to enable the centre line of the TCA to stay in the original position. |
An Angle finder was used to find the correct castor setting we chose to make sure we could adjust between 0° and 5°. |
|
|
|
|
From speaking to many experienced circuit racer's we opted for the popular compression strut to locate the TCA's. |
Sturdy brackets were made up and tacked into place. |
|
|
|
|
DIY in situ adjustable TCA system was extended with CDS tube. |
The Bracket gets boxed in for extra strengh. |
|
|
|
|
I am wondering whether to paint or polish that chassis ;) |
|
|
|
|
|
A set of race spec poly bushes locate the TCA's. |
|
| To be continued.... | |
