Awesome !! [^][:p][:x)]

How do you go about getting the neg camber... do you bow the axle housing slightly or seomthing ?

Have you starting setting up the hydraulic handbrake yet ? as im going to set up a hydraulic handbrake on my mk2 as cable with disks is simply useless !

Cheers.

Yeah bending the housing is the easy way at the cost of the axle bearings and splines.

I will just be inserting a hydraulic handbrake lever and master cylinder in the rear brake circuit.You realise it is illegal for street use?

Phil who would be disappointed with a cossie mk1 corty with a 6 link... Come on!!![:u]

the handling of the car should be heaps better. no more spinning the wheels on turn 1 at 180kph!!!!!! or maybe you might be drifting around turn 1??? suppose depends on the adjustment once its all in hey!!

best of luck... and get those cams lined up!![88] im keen to see the rear end setup but i think im more so keen to see the power output and also how much power having the cams out restricted the final output!!![;^)]

yeah i know it is illegal to have a hydraulic handbrake setup, but i also know that a cable handbrake with rear disks doesnt work very well so.. if i want to be legal i could run both a cable and a hydraulic setup.

What cams are you putting in phill ? are they from the uk ?
Also very keen to see the power output !!
Cheers.

Phil,

I have cut the pipe off for the 4-link and will get them parted off at 25.4mm.

P.S. Side note: that issue I had with the Output Shaft of the gearbox is actually only a sheared off cover on the drive shaft, it looks to be in place to shield the output of the gearbox from contaminents. No problem at all, it is gooooooone now. All better.

Glad you found the problem with the car Mark.
Must be a relief to find it and resolve it.
