Default FTAO TIM FINCH

TIM i have a problem with my Group A rear Beam can you please phone me so i can sort this out, i know you are busy but i have phoned you and E-mailed you several times plus pm'd you. the problem is that the mag arms are to short so the wheel does'nt sit centrally in the wheel arch and there is not enough adjustment on the arm to centralise it please can you contact me on one of the numbers below.This is important as i am running out of time.


Regards Paul

The gold mag arm is the problem.

Paul,

Did the setup come off an escort?

Sierra 'Y' link and Toe Link were shorter...

I assume the wheel is too far back ?

I think we have some old tubular 'Y' links you could try....

Could you do some dimensions of the 'Y' links from where the rose joint screws in to the centre of the beam bolt....

Regards

Ian
