Although they’ve been copied by many over the years the genuine Spyder wishbones are still the best, and, surprisingly still the best value.

Manufactured in flat sided oval to check distortion under braking and to prolong the life expectancy of the strut inserts.

Bushes can be supplied at extra cost (see price list). We can also supply round tube original type if required.

Finished in black powder coat. If you require a different finish please get in touch.

An Inexpensive way of enhancing your driving pleasure. Adjustable lower rear toe bones make adjusting the rear suspension toe-in a simple operation. They are an easy-to-fit pair of replacements for the non-adjustable units you have at present. Why fit them? For 2 main reasons:

Firstly, for your Elan or Elan +2 equal rear toe settings are vital to obtain optimum handling performance, over our many years of experience we have found that at least 3/16” toe in at the rear works for fast road use, this can be achieved by fitting the Spyder rear toe bones. For sprint/hill climb & circuit driving the cars will benefit from even more toe in.

Secondly, You can fine tune your car’s handling to suit your own particular driving style.

Manufactured in 7/8″ Round x 16 swg mild steel

Bushes can be supplies and fitted at extra cost.

Designed for competition use (less rod end bearings & spacers & sleeves). These are manufactured with Rod ends inboard bushes outboard

We use 1/2″ UNF rod end bearings with sleeves down to 7/16″ and spacers to make up bush width (sold separately)

Lower rear wishbone, supplied and press fitted these are high quality bushes we have manufactured (not like some cheaper poor quality items).
