Media Toyota FT-86 Undercarriage and Suspension Pictures from Geneva

Oh No, FT-86 Up-skirt action!

Here are some snaps of the undercarriage of the Toyota FT-86 snapped at Geneva. The fact these exist mean people are completely nuts about this car.

JACKE is most likely the jack point and a lovely rear diff

Some were taken from our friends at FT86club

Excellent - well done! Do I see a sway bar and lower wishbones at the rear? What is the front suspension configuration? Oh man on man this is great stuff!

I was the photographer, and posted the photos originally at : http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=456

It was actually not too difficult to take these photos. The Toyota grounds crew setting up the exhibit were very accomodating and even stopped the rotating stand to let me take photos.

Cool, haha i see you are an admin of the other site. Well when ours see's this thread I am sure he take care of your request. He probably just found the pics on the internet where someone else had already removed the watermark.

How close to the production model do you think your pictures represent?

Thanks Hachiroku, fabulous pics - great work.

Does anyone else feel a warm glow inside when someone mentions the words ... "rear diff" ?!?
