Does my Caterham have Narrow Track or Wide Track suspension?
Caterhams leave the factory with either narrow track or wide track suspension. When ordering an aftermarket suspension kit, its critical to ensure that the correct suspension kit is ordered as fitting the incorrect length dampers will affect the cars handling and not in a good way. If you are not sure if you have narrow track or wide track suspension, there are a couple of simple ways you can work it out:
Upper wishbone length:
The upper wishbone length on a narrow track is approximately 140mm and 180mm on the wide track variant.
Dampers:
On a Caterham with wide track suspension, you would usually notice a spacer at the top of the damper which is not present on a narrow track Caterham.
