| Tony M has really sorted out his suspension now and knows most if not all the fixes. He normally comes along to the East Midlands meet if you want to have a chat to him. Although he does use quite a lot of ballast in his which might help

| I have a MK2 and had front tyre wear problems. I took it for an MOT and the tester thought it was the camber, i took it for an alignment check and all was within Pilgrims spec, it turned out to be a combination of tracking and bad tyres. The guys on here suggested a top adjustable wishbone, as I believe it is under less load than the lower. I was thinking of trying a MK3 upper wishbone as it's adjustable, and got some dimensions from Gareth(i think). The dimensions should be in an old post. I no longer has access to workshop but i believe a set of wishbones could be made. HTH Stu. |

| The measurements Gareth gave me for a MK3 upper wishbone were 168mm between the inside of the bushes and around 255mm between the centre of the bushes and the centre of the top ball joint. I seem to remember the 255mm was greater than I measured a Cortina wishbone. I would think with the right facilities something could be made. HTH Stu. |
