Triumph Spitfire - Rear axle/suspension upgrade

Hello,

I am also looking for a Spit. differential like a subject on this thread. I just want to know if there is a swap set-up with rear axle plus suspension available for a Spit.

Thanks,

JGC

have been around on the net quite a bit with special interest for the Spitfare, but never met anything special. But what would you want. Ain't it good enough? Fort what purpose?

Mr. Fournier,

Very simple: the Spit rear suspensions has many flaws. It does not perform well and with a single srping set-uo it exhibits some instability. But thw weakess point is the rear axle, not really reliable. It is maily why I am looking for an upgrade.

Cheers,
