    Been researching this site over the last couple weeks for info on the correct unsplit wishbone for an AV8 using a 32 K member in an A frame. There is a ton of info and one of the most informative ones is Mike Bishops thread showing how to extend the 33 wishbone with an A donor. Since I am using an A axle my question is why can't I use two A wishbones to achieve the proper length using the Bishop recipe. I took his article as a solution for all who bought the 33 34 Bones and found it they didn't quite work. It looks like to me that I can accomplish the same thing with two A wishbones followng Mike's procedure or is my geometry off thus the need for the 33 bones.

    Thank you in advance for any advise.

    Thanks or no thanks maybe. That's what was in the back of my mind as well.

    Do you have a link to the Mike Bishop thread? I can't find it.
