    Turbo 2 rear lower wishbones, is there a demand?

    New poster! (less than 10 posts)

    Hi all.
    Just an enquiry. I am currently having the rear lower wishbones fabricated by my stepfather(mechanical engineer), he is looking at the materials he could possibly use at the moment.
    I personally resent having to pay over inflated prices of £325 plus for these and I need a pair to get my Turbo2 back on the road.
    Hopefully will have trial run them before the end of the year and if they meet my approval I will be in a position to have more made up.
    My question is - is there a demand for these parts, enough for me to ask him for more sets to place for general sale to members?

    im not 100% sure on this ( clee is probably the man to ask) but i think they are the same as the alpine gta/a610 wishbones,your probably best asking on the renault alpine forum and if they are im sure theres a few peeps on there that wouldnt mind some new wishbones ??

    i think if you get them made up so that you can adjust camber and caster . they would go like hot cakes

    when i owned mine....i had some made by my local engineering guy for the princely sum of £200. (about a year ago)
    then the son of GTO engineering guy came on here and said he could get them done for £150...
    there is not enough demand to be brutally honest.

    you make more money copying the devil exhaust in stainless....
