Dear all,

 

Does anyone have any pictures,preferably in detail,of the fitting of the rear axle from a Sierra onto a Mark 2 S7?I am pretty much building this car blind and so not that sure where everything goes.I have had a look at the series 3 videos which helped,but there are a few different bits.I really want info on the swing arm securings.Any enlightenment would be great!

I'll try and take some pictures of mine in the next few days. I have always had some slight doubt about the security and sufficiency of the way the rear axle is fixed, less so on the swinging arms but more so on the location and fixing of the front part of the frame to the tub.

I have seen better solutions engineered onto other people's cars but have never done anything about mine as it 'feels' rock solid with no play and MOT man has been happy to date.....in fact very compliementary about the rigidity of the whole vehicle for a kit car.

Harry - also meant to say - please join the club and go to an area meet - there's a good chance you will see an S7 or two to help you along. Its honestly the best way forward, and you'll have access to a lot more club resources than you have at the moment.
