My tubing for the tramp bars and panhard rod is a bit slow in turning up so I did a bit of strenthening to my TCAs last week and turned them into these.

Very nice, adjustable camber yes? What are you doing with the tie rods / radius arms to cope with the movement?

Your srengthening is probably better than mine, I just welded 3mm plate to the bottom of mine

Thanks.When my CDS tube arrives, there should be enough left over from the rear link bars and panhard rod to make the tie rods. :) I'll be using the same principle as the rear link bars,in that they will have left and right hand threads on the joints to allow in situ adjustment.I'll have to fabricate a bracket to bolt onto the chassis and TCAs.
