    Hardtop Help

    Can anyone provide the overall dimensions of a hardtop (LxWxH), needed to crate, and the weight. I am looking to purchase a hardtop but will need to ship it from the west coast to Michigan. Thanks

    Fitting a Tiger front crossmember

    Wonderful advice and comments. Thank you all. This is my first time using the 'Forums'. Being a new Alpine owner and member I believe the help and guidance of the members will be very beneficial to me.

    Thanks DanR. I have reviewed your brake and steering engineering posts. I will be considering these in the future.

    Fitting a Tiger front crossmember

    I agree with you about the negative Ackerman geometry alpine_64. I'm am exploring any options to improve steering geometry and adding rack. As for the reason to add rack/pinion steering, I prefer it as it has better and quicker feel.

    I understand the steering linkage. Is the steering wheel unique? And what 'tiger issues' are you referring to? I will be keeping the 4 cylinder in place.

    Fitting a Tiger front crossmember

    I would like to add rack & pinion steering to my Alpine V. Can a tiger front suspension cradle complete with suspension and steering rack be fitted to an Alpine V with it's 4 cylinder? Are there other ways to accomplish this? Suggestions and comments welcome. Thank you
