Mr_1200 Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 (edited) Hey guys, I know its a long shot but would anyone here have made a set of adjustable strut tops for their ke10/11 rollas? If so does anyone have any cad files or plans however rough they may be? Pics would also be useful. Also plans for a home made adjustable strut brace would also go down well! or pics etc If not i guess ill be undertaking this myself and when done ill post the plans etc. cheers Edited January 2, 2008 by Mr_1200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottKE1X Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 I believe Stewart Ford did adjustable tops on his sprinter?? you may have to get searching through the yahoo groups oldcorollas files. here is link: http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/oldcorollas/ failing that maybe contact stew himself, he's on toymods a bit. he'll come under the name 'oldcorollas' Scott.

philbey Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) this is his actual adjustable top page from his website http://t-rex.materials.unsw.edu.au/~sford/ EDIT - click Suspension on the left side of the page, then use the dropdown to Adjustable strut tops. Theres a drawing as well. old old old school pictures. Edited January 10, 2008 by philbey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_1200 Posted January 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 thanks for the info fellas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbey Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) mate, I'm gathering you are looking at making some up? if you do go about it, let us know, i'll buy a set for sure. EDIT - I just looked at that drawing, and I could have that in solidworks or DXF format tomorrow night. I think I will email that to a laser cutter bloke I know as well and see how much it will cost me..... EDIT AGAIN - Damn, Stewarts drawing doesnt have the PCD, and I don't have my car on me. have to wait.....

Mr_1200 Posted January 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 yeah ill be making some when i get the time. My subaru has the motor and box out at the moment and it seems to be taking up most of my time! So it may be a while to begin the strut tops but ill get there sooner or later...

You can use strut tops made for KE2x/TE2x you will have to oval out the holes a bit, the spacing is a few mm larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towbar65 Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Good to hear from a Canuck enthusiast. Where would we get the KE20 ones you mentioned? Thanks, Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
