Radius arm comparison

[Robert Leigh]

I have to admit that I have never tried to get my head round it all: if it works, accept it! When I had an RK fabric saloon it was fitted with a semi-Girling front axle and the later radius arms. With a high compression head and an SU carburettor it went quite well and I always managed to keep it on the road, and the later brakes although still uncoupled were a distinct advantage. I often set the handbrake part on before double declutching down to second when I was in a hurry!
