    Do you mean that the pins you got are to short? Or is it just that the rosejoint fouls on the arb or tensionstrut when turning the wheel?
    I've not fitted them yet but suspect they may be too short to allow for enough bump steer adjustment. Time will tell

      Onto the rear arches. Not going the full tub so you can see from the pics how we went about it

        Rear arches pretty much done now. Really good fit.

          Onto the front. Drivers side looking good. Damn there's a lot of metal to remove! Although I can finally fit some decent wheels and tyres though. Rolling on 22"....

                        Hi Mate, yes your car has been a massive inspiration for my build. Id love to know where you guys got your rear spoiler from?

                          Rear spoiler was a short oval /hot rod blade.
                          End plates were cut from 4mm ally sheet.

                            Hey Mate,

                            That's great. Can you tell me where you got it from?

                            Cheers
