This is the De Dion rear end, instead of independent rear suspension (IRS) which would have been on the Jag that the donor parts came from. Some of the other Cobra kits, including an option also from Dax, come with IRS instead. The idea behind the De Dion is to keep things stable. apparently it breaks away on the limit more predictably then IRS. I doubt I'm a good enough driver to be able to tell the difference.
The hubs are Jag but rotated 90 degrees compared to their position on the Jag. They are hinged on a pin at the rear, then shimmed for toe with washers on the front fixings.
