Personally I'm not a big fan of the overall result but you're obviously very good at what you do. I love the area around the rear number plate.

Very fat mate, lots of effort by the looks of it!

the original attempt at body mount was very unsuccessfull with this offset this is pretty common mod normally


after talks with the engineer , he wasn't keen on me compromising the chassis at all but had no probs with the body mount , we moved it back 100 mm and also welded 3 mm plate behind original to reinforce the floor inside and out .

made up but not finished off body mount , we tested out in a storm drain for flex and did a little more massage after this lol we now have full flex and lock without any stops .

tub body with a little cut out of it , not for the nervious people chopping this up !
