projectpug 0 Posted June 28, 2008 Hi all, After finally getting round to attacking my wishbones i cant get them to fit , i have a comparison with the standard arms but cant put a picture up due to size. Have i got the old design compbrake arms by any chance? Thanks Phil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smighall 1 Posted June 28, 2008 Mine would have fouled too, although i don't run a front one anymore so not an issue for me. I was a bit miffed though after we were guarenteed that they 100% clear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VisaGTi16v 1 Posted June 30, 2008 Standard windows paint can resize an image, do it down to 800x600 and it will easily be small enough to post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pacey205 2 Posted June 30, 2008 Or you could upload it to imageshack or similar. Theres a resize function on there as well if the image is truly massive! http://imageshack.us/ Michael Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
projectpug 0 Posted June 30, 2008 Paint seems to remove the image instead of resize it? But heres the two arms superimposed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest rs-tone Posted July 1, 2008 Thanks to help and input from some members we have been finding out why 95% seem to fit first time and others cause us a small clearence issue. At the moment we are linking it to vehicle ride heights Lowered vehicles naturally have more camber (imagine an elephant sitting on your car and think what the wheels will do lol) This we feel is causing an issue on a small majority of vehicles where the extra roll bar clearance is needed. After an emergency meeting last night when Phil called me to say his fouled we have looked at the arms / drawings and rose joints and can see where we can make some improvements so this issue does not show its head on standard cars or lowered cars. Both Phils and Steves will be modified and re supplied FOC as part of our customer care process. All arms in current stock will be modified in this manner for future orders (if sucessful) and people with any outstanding issues - remember we are here to help. You have dealt with a UK company who can offer you almost instant support to problems if you let us know !! Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
