Questions on running a wishbone

[nhtc33d]

Well, I built a sliding wishbone for my project "cheapskate 65" and I am now second guessing my decision. Is there anyone running one with stock type trailing arms? I am worried about excessive sway in the back end with my setup. Are my concerns a legitimate? Sorry, Forgot the pictures! :-)

As long as it is built right, it should be fine. The wishbone design is a legitmate stabilizing device.

Got some pictures up. Let me know if you think it will work or should I go to plan B!

Man I like that a lot.. is there a lot of slop between the two pieces of tubing? I kinda wish I would have done something like that....

Thanks, Well I was hoping I wouldn't need to use a plan B cause I really don't have one yet!

Thanks for the compliments. As for the clearance issues it is pretty tight. It slides easily but there is little to no side to side movement between the two. I still need to add a grease Zerk to it also. What don't you like about your Watts link? I thought it turned out great!
