looking at having an independent rad with electric fan probably front
mounted.

[camp freddy]

Jacked up the rear of the subframe ,drilled new mounting holes
and welded new stiffener brackets in place. Yipee!!!!

Lowered it back to the floor.

does it look low or is it me.

Needs lowering

[camp freddy]

Do you really think so Mart !!!!
It's not settled yet

The hi-lo's are on there lowest setting
i might chop another 20mm off the bars
it should be low enough then

75mm clearence from the tyre to the arches
not forgetting i've tubbed the arches so
the outside of the arch is higher than standard...

are those brace bars removeable ??? they look like they are welded on at both ends - if they arnt i would change them so you can take them off just incase you ever need to drop the front subby inthe future

other than that great project keep at it

the rear has two mate bolts welded inside the box section, and
the front mounting has a thick washer with an M10 bolt welded to
that it was then welded to the end of the tube, so they are fully
removable

thats good, there probably a fair bit stronger than those box section bars, that most people use then by sounds of it
