Eccentric Top Mounts And How To Get The Best Out Of Them

[Henry Yorke 269 3 Cars]

Surely CONcentric top mounts on the Mrs. are better than the eccentric type?!

Eww yeah eccentric if they've gone all Dali painting on you.

Agree! Age and 3 kids I would be happy with 25mm of movement. You get more eccentricity the larger the top mounts though

lol

I tried that when I fitted my 309 arms, turns out I'm REALLY bad at it, I was totally undriveable... Had to stop down the road and make some adjustments to get me to the tracking place.

I ought to make up something along the lines of the above to save some money.

 

Lol yeah when i put my 309 bones on it was terrifying! had to drive everywhere at about 15 mph, I'm not used to that...

Thought I would read this and from the 20-something posts it get really interesting , I think that the women from Thailand wont make top mounts for 205's Henry , albeit for a Bar-fine they can be very useful indeed .....IIRC You Butterfly rings a bell ..

 

Iam into this geometry stuff and have all the bits mentioned above apart from the narrow boddied struts that Iam still mulling over ..Adjustable city ..I suppose when it all goes wrong it will help me pick the route the 205 and I will exit the track into the bushes more accurately ...

I think I've posted about the string box method quite a few times.. I'll make a proper step-by-step guide at some point.

 

I think you got beaten to it;
