Re: Rear Suspension question on the GT-WC's

I think it has 4 trailing arms 2 on each side and then a watts link in the middle.

But not 100% sure.

Re: Rear Suspension question on the GT-WC's

Cool -- that validates my thought as well.
Now, trying to find the gearing of my WC car -- is proving a challenge in itself.

I think are wc cars are a panard bar since the link does not rotate like a true watts link. but I love the set up since I am a soild axle guy.

Re: Rear Suspension question on the GT-WC's

Heyguys, if you have a WC car you have 389 gear. If you have a school car you have a 350 gear. There were only 25 WC cars and 56 school cars that were built. There are many ways to tell which car you have. If you have a 25 gallon fuel tank, you have a school car. If you have a 35 gallon fuel tank, a WC car. If you need more information or have questions, email me.

Hi Tiny, the tank size was changed in some cars (standardisation?). Some school cars have 32 gal tanks fitted.
