205 front arms, interesting, certainly not what I would have done but I guess it works!

i was going to modify the subframe and use orignal wishbones but as the 205 arms are rose jointed already it was a simpler option and give good steering geometery adjustment
out of curiosity what way would you have done it?

Would have made the wishbones from scratch to fit the original subframe personally... might have been more expensive but would have been worth it from my point of view.
Still looking a good build get some more piccies and info up.

Thanks its a bit of a slow project at it nearly 18mths and its just a rolling shell
started off as just a gpa build but when i fitted the wrc kit the wheels were lost under arches and wasnt keen on widening it using spacers so widening the track was the best option
its a custom cages kit not 100% sure on price i think it was £800
