Al N. Posted May 9, 2007 Posted May 9, 2007 Does someone with a relatively recent vintage narrow bodied Caterham similar to mine (wide suspension and 15 in wheels preferred) have the time, inclination, and access to their car (mine is getting the water rail put in) to fill out a short form regarding certain dimensions of the car? It's stuff like overhang, etc. Send an email to me if you can help. Thanks in advance.
Al Carbonio Posted May 10, 2007 Posted May 10, 2007 Here's all you need III: Fronts inside clear: 46" Fronts out to out: 58" Rears inside clear: 44" Rears out to out: 60" Front to rear, c to c: 88" Overall length: 124" +/- Overhangs: negligible - 6" +/- Measurements taken w/ slicks on the car. Get torsion suspension. Full decks just add weight. Get radial trailer tires.
Boxologist Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 http://thinfourth.smugmug.com/photos/74574707-M.jpg don't know if u've seen this from one of the UK owners.
Davemk1 Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I do a lot of autocrossing in my car and here is how I get the slicks on 13" wheels to the event. The jack sit on the passenger side floor and I'm good to go. The rack uses the 3 pick-up points normally used by the spare tire carrier. Fun with tubing.

Davemk1 Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Do you want a photo of the rack mounted on the car sans tires? If so I don't have one but the rack goes on this weekend for a race and I could take one. Let me know. Dave
Al N. Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 Final question...should the ramps pull out of the left side or right? I'm thinking right, so I'm not standing in the middle of the road.
