  • Rover SD1 Suspension – the Macpherson the SD1 Has
    Rover SD1 Suspension – The MacPherson The SD1 has independent front suspension. Each front wheel moves individually from the other and the following types are common. • Leading/trailing link systems • Double wishbones • Multi link systems • MacPherson Multi link systems can provide the best comfort and handling. Next best is the double wishbone if properly set up. For instance most American cars use it but the geometry often leaves room for improvement. And then there is the MacPherson, giving good comfort and reasonable handling. Why then, did Rover choose a slightly inferior system? They preferred the double wishbone approach but it would not leave room to locate the catalytic converters needed for the U.S. market, plus the cost was higher. So the simple MacPherson was chosen which consists basically of a coil spring and shock absorber built into the spring leg. The leg pivots on a ball joint on the lower control arm. This can be either an ordinary A- arm or a narrow lower control arm which locates the lower end of the strut in the transverse direction and a separate member called a radius rod locating the assembly in the longitudinal direction. However on the SD1 the anti-roll bar serves a double function as the longitudinal link taking the drive and brake forces and thereby eliminating the separate radius rod. At the top, the SD1 has a roller bearing (not shown here) to allow the spring leg to turn without the spring winding up. The strut itself is the load-bearing member in the assembly. ie: - The spring and shock absorber hold the car up.

  • Rear Suspension Radius Rod Geometry
    INFORMATION SHEET # 05 - 2011 (V1 July 2011) Rear Suspension Radius Rod Geometry Introduction: During the two previous rounds of LVV Certifier training sessions (late 2010 and early 2011), one of the points of technical discussion LVVTA had with the LVV Certifiers was ‘ladder bars’ - a term given to a particular type of radius rod, that in some circumstances can create incorrect suspension geometry and bind. This Information Sheet summarises the outcome of the good feed-back and general concensus of those discussions LVVTA had with LVV Certifiers throughout the country, together with the like-minded view of the LVVTA Technical Advisory Committee. The Information Sheet also provides an overview of how such radius rods are to be treated by the LVV Certifiers until such time as the Suspension Chapter of the Car Construction Manual has been next amended. It is important to note that this information sheet focuses only on rear suspensions, as the use of the type of radius rod systems covered within this information sheet as they apply to front axles is dealt with separately within the Suspension Chapter of the NZ Car Construction Manual. Types of radius rods in question: Radius rods should always be designed and fixed so as to maintain correct geometric operation during full suspension extension and compression. There are three types of radius rods that have been traditionally fitted to modified and scratch-built vehicles, where maintaining correct geometry is very difficult, if not impossible. These three systems are as follows: • One system is ‘split radius rods’, which is a term given, usually to 1920s through 1940s Ford-based cars and pick-ups, where the OE radius rods that originally triangulated from the diff housing into a central pivot point on the chassis, are opened out, or ‘split’ and connected to the vehicle’s chassis side-rails.

  • Players Register A-Z 1895-2016
    WAKEFIELD TRINITY RLFC PLAYERS REGISTER A-Z 1895-2016 HERITAGE NUMBERS … The Story Initial Ideas Our initial ideas for the heritage numbers came about a couple of years ago (approx. 2012), after seeing the success of Queensland in Australia, with Warrington being the first English club to follow suit. Next Step Tremendous work had been carried out by a group of rugby league historians in the 1970s (RL Record Keepers’ Club) who pooled their knowledge, and attempted to record every game in the first one hundred years of rugby league (1895-1994). Trinity’s were completed and fortunately we acquired the records to every Trinity game, and players, since 1895 The First 100 Years The teams for the first one hundred years of Trinity’s rugby league days (1895-1994) were recorded and each new player to make his debut noted. On the very first game there were fifteen (numbers 1-15) and each debutant after this was given the subsequent number, in position order (full back, winger, centre etc.). This was checked, double-checked and triple checked. By 1994 we had found 1,060 names. The Next 20 Years … Part 1 The next twenty years, to the modern day, were a little more difficult but we researched the Trinity playing records through the excellent ‘Rothman’s Year Books’ written by the late Raymond Fletcher and David Howes. These books started in 1981 and finished in 1999. Again, each debutant was given the next heritage number The Next 20 Years … Part 2 After the ‘Rothmans’ books ceased publication we used the yearbooks published by ‘League Weekly’, which also noted every new player, signed throughout the season.
