    Please post pictures of crossmembers and wishbone mounts for AV8 or similar. What did you use for clamps to hold the ball in? I will be using a 35 wishbone with a model A ball end welded to it and an F1 crossmember. Any pictures of that set up will be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Model A vendors sell a couple of replacement mounts, both of these are available from Snyders Antique Auto for about $25

    Maybe you could use some trailer hitch ball parts.

    This is a 35 wishbone and 32 k member. Wishbone was a little short so I used 2 plates as sandwich to match up. Used a spring loaded Model A socket from one of the vendors IMG_0912.jpeg
