I would try using leftover fruitcake from christmas time. :-) Just cut it in 1 1/2 inch circles and use a diamond tipped drill to make the hole. You may break a few bits doing this. I guarantee you will eliminate washer "failure" on the trailing arm bolt. In fact I think with proper tooling they would make great TA bolts as well....

TABs & washers Walt I really dont think that you need any exotic washers to go along with the TA bolt. If I get some time this weekend I will run a simulation and do some calcs but I really think that they will show that a hardened plated steel will be just as good.

TABs & washers Martin, To state it mildly, your e-mail e-sucks. (I feel better now, thankyou.) I've been stalling Yvonne for a few days waiting to hear an opinion from you about making the washers for the trailing arm bolts. I got the following quote: 200 washers with OD of 55mm £7.93 each 200 washers with OD of 60mm £10.20 each I think this is way too expensive. What will it take to have washers made out of that stock of TA10 titanium alloy? Walt To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: DMCForum-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Your use of Yahoo!
