I'm a firm believer in CAD drawings

Steering bracket bolted to chassis, for easy mods and possible upgrade  to geared steering

Just an update on the Booker Bandit. As I's sure you all know, you can be working on all sorts of bits and pieces, but when you take pics of the car, nothing has changed ! We have drilled the chassis for the spring shackles and cut tubing and doublers, ready for welding. Made brass bushes for the front axle and made the steering front bearing support, bolted to the chassis in case we want to upgrade to a geared steering set-up. I used Paxolin for the bearing and steering stops. We have mulled over the Ackerman steering geometry and decided we need about 14 degrees on the steering arms, with 1000mm track and 1665mm wheel base. At the back end, the engine and shafts layout is more or less finalised, so we can do a bit more welding.
