    That rear beam is gonna be super stiff with the combo of the two.

    Nope, the peloquin is still in it's box on the shelf, need to find a spare $800 to have it put in a gearbox.

    I'll bear that in mind if I don't have any joy with the local steel merchant. Cheers!

    Just don't have the time to learn at the moment, also need to acquire/manufacture the right tools which I also don't have the time for.

    Is there any advantage in moving the sway bar mount further forward so it doesn't foul the shock bolt? Looks like you've got a bit of room to play with.

    I set the mounts as far back as possible for maximum leverage. I could move them forward a bit but the bar itself will still be in the way of the shock bolt.

    I've now threaded those bolts all the way down and I'll cut them to length.

    The mount doesn't foul the bolt as such, it just makes access to it a bit fiddly. It's further complicated by the drop towers for the diagonals.

    Wow, that's an interesting bit of kit, might have to watch that one.

    Cheers,
