Some great work being done there.

Better than factory in some regards.

But that isnt really that hard to achieve.

and i spent hour trolling through the forum last night looking up the chassis strengthening kits and how the torries can twist and contort, so today while in the area the panel master and myself discussed the areas which i would like stitch welded....turned my back for 5 mins and the man was all over it with a good cracking start
