So i trimmed the mount down today...

Now because where the holes needed to be, the top hole was on the welding, so each side was uneven. So i needed a spacer.

Trimmed it to fit, tack welded it on. Perfect spacer.
Had to tap the bottom gear box hole as it was a bit rough getting a bolt it, with that all clean i got the mount bolted up.
Then had to struggle like a funker to get the rear mount on, with alot of help from Dan and a prie bar, we got the rear mount in, got the gear linkage set up in two. Wheel cleaned on the inside and refitted. Dropped back on the ground for what seemed the first time in ages...(9th of sept i broke it..)

Started on the button, took it for a test drive and everything was ok. Let it warm up for awhile.
Looking at it, where i've had to pry bar the box it looks farther forward, so need to giggle it a bit on the rear mount adjustment to get it back a bit more as the shaft has a bit of angle on it, but no where ner what it did have. So all good.

Was gonna say, bit down on power! Thats at the fly then I'm assuming mate?
Looks good as usual mate, i think you should always keep the polished wheels and GSi front bumper on no matter what though.
Yep, up on std so i'm happy. They do it at that wheels, we converted it over after.Quote:
