Definately mount chute to diff or chassis in some way. Mounting to body will be disastrous as you will pull the beaver panel off it when chute initially inflates. Unless you can tie in the roll cage to the beaver to prevent it

Ah well a diff is prolly more preferable. It will sit a little lower than the chassis so will have less tendency to lift the rear of the ground as it inflates
