are these commercially available mark,or are you going to sell them through your business.
lots of camber with that offset,& all at the top so the wheel track stays close to original.

We hope to have costings finalised this week so that we can offer them for sale.

We got just on 5 degrees of neg camber, but we have also repositioned the pivot point of the lower control arm. I would expect 2.5-3 degrees neg without moving the lower control arm pivot point.

The red adjutment knob almost hits the inside of the shock tower....so we couldn't get much more neg on it!

nice job Mark. your car is a credit to you.
I won't be going to adjustables at this stage, will just weld a collar on the strut and space the spring seat up to the right height. semi adjustable I guess...

I have a question about rollcages- especially for the sunny guys- have you guys retained the dashboards in your cars? I am keeping the dashboard in my car, but it is impossible to get the front legs of the cage to follow the A-pillar, we are only allowed one bend in the front leg,so it can only follow the pillar for a small part before it must bend to clear the dash, at an angle so as to still have the foot foward enough not to make it hard to get in and out of the car... if you can understand what I'm trying to say!!!
Have you guys cut part of the dash away, or just bent the tube around the dash?
Cheers,
Morgan

Morgan, I tried to position the bend in the front legs so they go through the air vents.

Didn't quite work out so I cut away the dash from the air vents to the windscreen.

I put a picture in the photo album. (Don't know how to include in a topic )

Hey Morgan,

My dash is cut also to get the cage to follow the A pillar. To get the dash out though, we have to remove the windscreen! It's he only way that it will go in or out.....hence we have not (and have no plans) to remove it in the near future.

My cage is tagged in to the A Pillar also.

Cheers,

Mark.
