As some of you are aware DMS/X-factory UK are clearing out their vintage stock... a veritable Alladin's cave up for grabs !!...
....amongst the Yokomo goodies are CML YZ10 lay down front towers (early YZ10) CML025... carbon fibre
I've never come across these before and am curious as to what 'lay down' towers look like (for YZ!0/870c)
... if anyone had a photo of their sweet rides with these on I'd appreciate a look....

Yeah i've got a few bits too... there are some interesting/usefull parts being listed.... Cougar2 Carbon shock mounts & twin bearing conversion etc etc, also I think there's some CML wishbones listed in the Yokomo section - would these have been part of the 'Drescher' convertion?

Yeah lots of stuff I've never heard of but YZ's were completely unknown to me up until a year ago... I raced CATs myself back in the day....
Dan, the CML wishbones... how different/similar in geometry to 870C stock arms ? am after some rear arms with more toe than standard ....

No idea i'm afraid.... i've only just got into these old Yokes a month or so ago when I picked up my YZ10 - I just read in the 'Stickied' timeline thread something about a 'Drescher' conversion from CML that included different wishbones - i've just put two & two together
I was a Schumacher guy too back in the day... had a TopCat that became a Cougar.... then later-on I was a B-team factory driver so was running FireBlades & SST Touring cars.
