Standard fitting on a blackjack avion. From david emery.

. Gives wider track thus tighter turning circle more clearance in some cases for an exhaust pipe

I like the mudguard mountings Kevin. Did you weld brackets on the uprights or are the king pin swivels from another Citroen 2CV clone?

Hi Alan to save time I just bought them hubs with brackets on/fibre glass wings/brackets complete so they fit perfectly from david emery the blackjack avion parts supplier. The ball joints/Trackrod ends from Howard of course and they are brilliant as well

Thanks Kevin

I've got some of Howard's TRE's waiting in the wings.

Alan,

The Ami had mounts on the front of the swivels for inertia dampers.

On mine I also had some rear mounts made up and welded on too. I made some wing brackets out of some barstock, angle and plate.

Thanks Niall

I thought that I had read somewhere that one of the clones had such brackets. It is of interest only at the moment as I have some NOS original brackets that mount on the TRE points. Mind you I have also heard that these are prone to faults. Time will tell.
