Due to the fact that I have to use X-joints (don't know what they're called) in the steering, the steering column had to have an extra bearing. So I made a bracket, shortend the column and mounted the bearing. I am pretty pleased with it.

I didn't like the way the gearbox was hanging (i did this 2jrs ago) so it was time for "plan B".
"Plan B" is mounting the gearbox higher, further inwards and solid. ![]() ![]() Back mount are ready, now it is time to do the front. Paul.

The frame-horn replacements are ready, when the body goes of I will make the def. welds.
![]() I widened the gearbox mount, this will make it stronger and improve the looks of the roll cage. ![]() Paul.

Hi
Loving this build, keep the photos coming. I made this reply because sometimes when you post things and you don't get a reply it seems like your talking to yourself. I really like what you did with chassis forks. Steve
