TomB Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'm slowly collecting wide track bits. I've got the RHS wishbones and have a lead on the longer brake hoses. Does anyone have any other parts to help build up a kit? Specifically Damper extensions Steering rack extensions LHS wishbones Mid range anti roll bar - I'm not sure what I'll need probably not the thickest or thinnest - maybe orange?

Mankee Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Damper extensions and orange ARB still here, Tom! And tonnes of springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanium7 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I have a pair of unused new rack extensions I believe. Footnote - I'm off the Far East on business for a week in the morning so would not be able to post them to anyone until 19th June.

TomB Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Boing! I'm just after rack extensions and left hand side wish bones now. Recently sourced red ARB and damper extensions from Mankee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Boing All I need is left hand upper and lower wishbones. Ive emailed a couple of the race teams but not had a response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomB Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 In the anticipation that I wont be lucky and find two left hand wishbones through 'Wanted', Ive been looking at CC Online for the correct wishbones and what these will cost. My car is a pre-1996 suspension revision, with the combined upper damper/ rear wishbone attachment. Can anyone confirm whether a post 1997 wishbone will fit the early style front? Caterham seem to have stock issue on widetrack wishbones - surprise surprise. Do you think its worth me calling Bruce at Arch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted July 24, 2014 Leadership Team Share Posted July 24, 2014 Tom, I always thought it was the same widetrack wishbones that could be fitted to both earlier and later Imperial chassis, I don't know if it was changed for the metric chassis. The one you've linked to is a little confusing as a post-2007 (Imperial) fitment If Caterham are no longer supplying the original widetrack wishbones then surely Arch can supply directly? Stu.

TomB Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 I presume that wishbone is for the post 1996 suspension, on an imperial chassis. ISTR they didn't go metric until the mid 2000s. Ill do some phoning around later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted July 24, 2014 Leadership Team Share Posted July 24, 2014 Tom, I've just edited my post ... the one you've linked to is stated as "used from 2007 onwards (imperial)" Stu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankee Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I have no idea exactly what wishbones I have but they were a straight fit, so I would assume they are Imperial, regardless of year. £168 for a lower plus £84 for an upper... it almost makes it worthwhile buying a whole new kit, but I know you've collected all/most of the other bits already.

TomB Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Kits don't seems to be available at the moment though ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankee Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I'm sure they are on your list of phone calls already, but Redline might be able to make up a kit from stock. They were going to do this for me when I trolleyed a stub axle. I can appreciate there's a few more components to a widetrack kit though. Hope you get something sorted.

TomB Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 I've Spoken to Redline this afternoon. The upper and lower wishbones were £69 and £140 respectively. I've emailed them a list of what I have, and what I need, and asked them for a price of the kit minus brake hoses. All I'm missing is the LH wishbones, upright spacers and damper sleeves.
