Currently I'm working on re-designing bell-cranks in order to accommodate new dampers. The original bell-cranks have a motion ratio of about 0.5 (Shock / Wheel) which was necessary due to the original dampers used. I really didn't want to be re-making bell-cranks since the originals were very nice, but in order to properly re-build this car it is necessary. The new motion ratio will be 1. In the front that will simply mean re-building bell-cranks. In the rear it'll be a little more difficult since the damper and the pull-rod want to occupy the same space. To resolve that I am borrowing a solution that UTA has used for years on the rear of their cars. This will result in re-making rear bell-cranks, but also slightly altering the mounts of the chassis. More to follow very soon, including big news on springs & dampers.
