Thanks for joining the fold Kieran.
I've been ill the last few days so the thought of a cold garage floor has halted proceedings for the time being.
Just been totting up a big order from M-Machine for the rest of the panels so need to find some money first.
If you find any kidneys for sale on Ebay they'll be mine!

Went in the garage for half an hour last night came out with this.
Might not look much but by heck did it bleed!
Consequently the trunnion still wont line up.

Quick one now that all the trunnion bolts are nipped up should that mean that the heal board is in the correct place to be welded to the load bed floor?
