Most of the hardware can be bought from rally design. Look up a guy on here and drop him a pm, muz is his name. I built mine years ago and got the measurements straight from MEF. Lost the drawing many years ago now. Transformed the handling but made the car hard and noisy

thank you for that mate will find him and send a message
I made some a while ago. made a simple jig using a bit of box section and threaded bar to replicate a rear with bone and used used nuts to work out spacer sizes pretty simple to do.
I do still have some drawings BUT when I was making them I kept tweaking the measurements until I got them perfect and now I cant remember for the life of me what ones of my drawings are correct and what ones aren't so I could end up giving you the wrong ones lol.

have you still got the car with them on and see what measurements add up? Or send what you got and I'm sure I could work it out lol
The car is in my mates body shop for paint but hes doing it on the side so he might have it a few weeks or a few months. Il post up the drawings I have but like I said take them with a pinch of salt as I cant say for sure if they are the correct ones.
This drawing corresponds to the arms below. The 9mm spacers are used to slot inside the cone fitting to stop it crushing when boltimg a rose joint onti the side of it Thats all the pictures and measurements i have but like i said they might not be my final drawings (im pretty sure they are) and they might not be 100% correct for your car/ setup so id recommended you use them as a reference rather than copy them exactly.
I also had new tie bars made for the front that go from the tca to the anti roll bar setup off an s1 rst. Might have drawings for them too somewhere 😂
please mate if you do I would like to use them a lot. And thank you for all of that mate. Cant wait to get stuck into that part of it. What diameter and thickness tube did you use?
You can buy all the relevant rose joints and threaded inserts from McGill motorsports. Left and right hand thread. Saves a fortune
that's who i used for all mine but was pretty shocked how quickly they've started to wear out, my rears all have play in them and could do with being replaced
Ive never had a problem with them. I do buy the expensive stuff though. There are a few levels of quality. Mind you I didnt do many miles as the ride was so harsh.

I used there ultra high performance ones (there top spec ons) and they lasted about 800 - 1000miles max on the road, I know they are not best suited for road use but expect them to last longer then that.

is there anywhere else I can get them from? I don't want to be replacing them every 1000miles
