chassis
Hi
This is a diagram of the deon front suspension. Unlike the locost wishbone where the ball joint screws in or out, the deon ones have the adjustment on both the inner arms where the wishbones bolts to the chassis rather than at the upright. The ball joints were bolted in securely. I guess this allows fine tuning of the upright angle? Both top and bottom wishbones have this arrangement.
The rear wishbones on earlier JHC cars also had this adjustment on both upper and lower wishbones ,but later deon cars had a fixed upper wishbone.
When I come to make my chassis I can draw a diagram and add sizes if anyone is interested.
You're right about the deon/jhc chassis being fine tuned by geoscan.It was said to have been tested at castle combe circuit.
