Fantastic build thread, I'm not entirely sure how I've missed it all this time but I'm definitely going to keep an eye on it
now!!
One question, the front upper wishbones, they're not very 'triangular' are they? I appreciate there's not much loading meant
to go through them, but they do seem to put bending forces on to the weld joints. The lower ones look better as they have bracing on them.
This is indeed a weak spot in my opinion as well and might need to be looked at again. It's a trade off between having enough room for a
coilovers to pass through. I was going to weld some round bar to triangulated I will have plenty of testing to do.

Please tell me there is going to be a diff NOSE MOUNT and your not just going to rely on the main plate of the diff cover??? It was not intended to
work on it's own the main plate only stops the diff twisting it DOES NOT stop the diff from bucking when you put torque through it!!!
