All you have to do is supply him with measurements and he will do the rest.
I think its a little strange that a guy who has a little factory in the outskirts of sydney has invented so much technoligy for suspension componants. oh well some people have great brains

So is the bloke callled Kevin Macpherson going around telling people he invented it?

If so that's hilarious! I suppose it may help with sales, after all, he fooled homer!

I'd probably believe him too

...almost

The real truth is:


http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/m/macpherson_strut1

http://www.answers.com/topic/macpherson-strut


Earle S. MacPherson, inventor of the MacPherson Strut front suspension, who was Ford VP-Engineering in those days.


Darn Aussie BS artists...Could have been a close relative I suppose.

Seems old Kevin doesn't have the internet on at home yet..

I just had a sway bar custom made at K MAC suspension in Rockdale, Sydney.
He can make anything, he says if he dosent have it in stock or its not available any where he can have it made with in 24 hrs, This is the guy who Invented Macpherson strut suspension used in 99% of all new cars today. so he knows his stuff.
All you have to do is supply him with measurements and he will do the rest.
