So i'm converting my mk2 cortina to a savage (v6) and have decided to put the capri chassis legs on and run the whole front capri axle (and back but that doesnt matter) including the crossmember etc. Now, the strut tops of a capri are 25mm wider than my cortina ones (all together so 12.5mm each side) and thinking or have been told that this may be a problem when it comes to camber/caster. Was thinking this could be sorted with adjustable tca's or should I just move the strut tops while i'm there?

Cheers

I personally would put the strut tops in the original cortina position and run adjustable tca's for fine tuning the geometry.

 

Yeah that's what I was thinking, would rather not bother the original position and still have that option of adjusting. Glad to know i'm not the only one who thinks that haha.
Cheers!

 

Adjustable TCA's every time!

 

Adjustable TCA's It is then! Thanks

 

Can you not run adjustable top mounts instead?

 

I have looked into it, but I have heard bad reviews about adjustable top mounts on road cars. (Mine is my going to be a track car, or at least not for a couple years)
But if worse comes to worst then I would buy the adjustable top mounts and test them out before I move the mounts. Thanks!
