The process took an exceptionally long time to sort out, especially the new independent rear suspension. Bob Knight developed the new system which used lower wishbones and half-shafts. Attached to the body by an enclosed sub-frame, the suspension was completely contained with the onboard brakes, twin spring/damper units and all the pickup points.Like the D-Type, the E used a specialized front sub-frame made of Reynolds 531 alloy that attached to the front bulkhead of the monocoque body.
