Front Wishbones

Hi,

Front Wishbone [Lower Track Control Arrms]

Please correct if any of this is incorrect.

The 16v uses 129 front wheel hubs/knuckle
which facilitates larger front wheel bearings
and being able to upgrade to larger Calipers / Discs
from the 129 etc and some other series.

The front 16v wishbones have the same
pick ups as the 129 series but are 201
wishbones, and are common across the
201 range.

The 129 front wishbones, will fit the 16v
but are stronger ? have larger bushes ?
larger hub end bearing ?

The Front wishbone inner bushes are rubber
bushes on steel inserts with eccentric bolts
into elongated holes for adjustment ?

Delrin inner bushes are available but has any body
got or using the Thorsten Stadler type outer Rod Ended
front wishbones ?

On lowered Cars, has anybody here raised up the
front wishbone inner pick up points so as to combat
the alteration of the cars original supsension geo angles,
which alter quite dramtically on a lowered car ?

Regards,

The Gorilla.
