MX5 Haynes Roadster Rear Upper Wishbone Dimentions
Ajohnston_10 - 2/7/14 at 08:06 PM

Hi all,

Looking for some more help with my build. Im building an MX5 based Haynes Roadster using the saturn build guide.

Im at the stage of building the wishbones but have come to a stand still with the Rear upper wishbone dimentions. The saturn guide doesnt have all the dimentions in the drawing.

Could someone help me with this, or even better does anyone have a complete diagram with all dimentions.

Any help would be appriciated,

Cheers,

Ally

There is one diagram floating about, but I just can't find it now. I was just going to build up the diff, driveshafts and uprights and measure the length I need!

Hi glad it helps. Dont know if you need them but i got the 5mm plate work done by craig at plazcutz. No interest just happy with what i got.
One point to watch and specify to craig (if needed) is the top mounting hole on the rear upright is 10mm not 12mm and the lower one is 14mm not 12mm. Guess who found out the hard way......
I rose jointed the outer end of my rear lowers and the inner end of my front lowers.
