    Fantastic work on the sunroof repair job - it's neat to see you adapt what you need to what you have, to well make something new.

    I like the plates, missus did well.
    yeah, dont believe in wasting money to save only time. my rates are cheap and i enjoy making solutions.

    nothing really secret, just shortened the standard bar, then drilled and tapped a female thread to take the pivot link. As mentioned, its not fully sorted... dont there is enough strength where ive gone though the control arm, so i plan on beefing up the area and using a couple of rose/heim joints for the droplink.

    Always answer PM's so shoot me queries

    yeah, all under the car. drivers front goes infront of engine under radaitor then joins the passenger and follows the fuel lines to rear.

    hey, good to see you still about. lower control arm will get a bit of support where bolted and will probably buy some proper rose joints to make the drop link rather than the shortened merc rear ones as in the pic.

    This thing is so sick, I would pay good money for those front bag brackets you've got there
