Roger440 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Im guessing he got a triumph herald/spitfire/gt6 or similar, though im not sure because the track at the front is not narrower from memory. Sounds like a lot of work to acive his aim. I think id get me tape measure out and go and find a half decent front end to fit on instead, at least that will have most of the basic geo something like right. And a nice vauxhall rack to get round any bump steer issues if need be. A touch crude - maybe! But the more i think about it this is some triumph based kit car, equippe or similar.

Tony Posted January 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Without volunteering to be thicket of the week..... What the bloody hell is a "Woblink" Ive got no idea!! Excellent I thought i had missed that day at school... We all know about roll centres and live axles but i have never heard of a "Woblink" .... It can be assumed then that if this "Wobbly linkey" if a real entity it must serve little importance commercially so we will put this on the very back shelf until told otherwise.......

Tango Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Without volunteering to be thicket of the week..... What the bloody hell is a "Woblink" Had one on the Mallock we used to hillclimb...here's a sketch/pic (not of THE Mallock)...and the reason why it's called a 'WOB' (nothing to do with it being the slightest bit 'wobbly')...a picture's worth a thousand words probably a couple of thousand in this instance.

magic919 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Without volunteering to be thicket of the week..... What the bloody hell is a "Woblink" I'm unfamiliar with his works but a guy called Allan Stanifold wrote a book about suspension that mentions it. The WOB name came from W - James Watt O - Maurice Olley B - Donald Bastow Instead of a thousand words... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Some time later it appears we are talking "roll centres" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
