That's a pain, at least you found out in a safe environment and summer is over though.

Tony,
Excuse my ignorance mate but what is it and what busted mate?

[steve m]

Rear drop link bracket on the chassis, not the rear axle

The book design is not very good,, and alas mine are exactly the same as Tony's except still attached to my car

Yup steve m has got it. Sorry hammy this pick might be clearer the paint job isn't the best but it's protected

I also did the bottom one because i found a crack.Got a top tip welding the ends together it is certainly going to pull in together so just do this it sounds silly but when you're welding it will always pull just have to think and do what it needs

Hi Tony
I'm Glad you got it sorted mate (Good Find) these sort of things are easily over looked.

I was Lucy enough to take 4'and half years building mine, giving enough time for a few repots to surface on locost builders of failures so moded mine by linking the outer edges of the top and bottom brackets together and caps on the ends. About time I checked them though.
