[DeTomaso] Fwd: Si Wheel measurements

[R.J.]

To bring a light into the dark, Simon got these parts from me. Those 
where part of the leftovers of 50 planed SI's, witch i bought after the 
close down of the factory in 2003.
I did a long research for using those on my car. The SI steering rack 
had longer steering arms. The rack itself, had the same dimensions.
The front spindles are the same as on earlier Panteras. The steering 
arms are different. The front a-arms can be used plug and play in an 
earlier car. The rears not. The mounting points on the rears are wider 
than on the old cars. The a-arms look longer, but with the construction 
and mounting points on the carrier, the whole setup is a bit shorter. 
The mounting points on the SI where more wide out on the back as on the 
earlier cars. So the offset of the rims front and back is way less.

   Mike,

   Could you ask Simon if the Si's front spindles and steering arms are
   the same as on earlier Panteras. In the photo of the Si's rear upright,
   you can see about two thirds of the front spindle and steering arm. It
   sure looks familiar to me!

   Thanks!

   David
