    Great work.
    Its the reason the 200 stuff made such good sense mate. You can buy rose-jointed adjustable kits for all those suspension arms for very little money for what they are and its a good handling setup. As you've said you build the frame around it. The subframe has 4 pickup points as you can make out in the pics, the frontwards mounts I plan to build into the bottom of the cage then the rears from the top and build from there. Hopefully will all make sense when I can start cracking on....

    I finished the chassis just as I was kicked out of my mates unit (not my fault) and it was transferred to my new unit, since then I haven't worked on it. However work on my Carlton's suspension bringing it up to touring car spec has yielded a greater understanding of geometry and add that to the poor weight distribution I decided to totally rethink my method of converting it.

    I have the plan and bought the parts I need but have not done anything with it yet, the idea isn't a million miles from your setup though. PM if you want the details.

    Exactly. Toughest challenge is getting it all level and squared up.
