Jerry Sez....

     "...older cars had an actual physical axis called a "kingpin"..."

     Um, Jerry, This a Moke we're talking about here.... A mini derivitive.
Minis are a fairly old car and actually have Kingpins. At least that's what all
the books call em. Still come that way today. :)  Actually, if anyone is doing
suspension work on a mini or derivitive, a good companion book to Puhn's
"How to Make Your Car Handle" is David Visard's "How to Modify your Mini"
Aside from detailing many of the engine tweaks in his "A series" book, Mr.
Visard goes over all aspects of Mini prep, including off road prep. I
recommend it if it can still be found.

     Since TRF is now "online" I have a few questions to ask....

      1) Did you ever get rid of that stack of front Mini Subframes???

      2) I've seen the other cars, but whose beautiful Bugeye is that in
        the "showroom"? Is this a hint on where TRF is expanding to next?

     One final thing, if TRF is planning on connecting to Internet, they might
want to talk to the people at IUP. I don't know what kind of machine they
have there, but it is apparently able to reach PSUVM.
