Bone design - any good?
There' a guy selling these on eBay.
Can anyone see any floors with the plate design before I but some?
Cheers,
Pat...

Can't see them being any worse than the lolocost ones?

Pat,
You can buy plates from me for cheaper than him i believe, and mine use the maxi ball joint.

They look better than the book but they still use the Cortina ball joint,
I bought a set of plates from Darren and was overjoyed ( ;-)) with the quality
Darrens plates are ideal for building a wide track car.
Marc Nordon also sells plates at a very reasonable price but to my eye Darren's looked better.

I'm not just after the plates though - I'm after a full bone, bracket and bush set (front bones and rear trailing arms and panhard
rod).
I already have 'tina bottom balls so that works out cheaper.
This guy is doing them for around £200 with p&p and powder coating and top and bottom balls.
I doubt Daz, Mark, MK or any of the other can do it that cheap.

Why all the sheet steel? It's only going to increase unsprung and overall weight.
Is he building them because he can, or does he know what he's doing.
Seems a bit daft to me. If Doz's bones are cheaper, why even contemplate those ones? Everything Doz is apparently good quality and well
designed.

Yes but I think the issue is that Darrens (although they may be better) seem to be more expensive, see £110 kit details above.
Its all about choice really, however it would be good to hear from someone who has some of these.
