I was thinking about that, bit I don't think it will work to be honest! There is about 5mm tops inbetween the bolt tab thing and the chassis.
The engine is already tilted over a bit as I have removed the drivers side engine mount spacer!
It's only a temporary solution really, as I'm currently organising getting some 16v stainless headers made up

Re: Twiss' Build/Breakages Thread!
After a year and a week off the road... ITS BACK!
Got my MOT yesterday!
After it failed before christmas and I did all the work to it, they found a couple more patches of rust I had to plate over, a missing split pin and away we go!!!
So believe it or not I have an MOT pass cert with no advisories!!

Re: Twiss' Build/Breakages Thread!
Wow its actually been a year since I posted in here!!!
Just a quick update, I haven't really done much to the zook! I've put some new gauges into the dash, a new CD player, and a nice phone mount on the windscreen... so now I have a nice entertainment system going on! It was useful for the Billing show as I woke up and streamed the Formula 1 race onto my phone, with the sound coming through the stereo
As a result of snapping an add a leaf in half I have also replaced both of the front springs with Potty springs.... 2" lift variety that I got from Dave at Llama 4x4. As usual, top bloke, sorted in minutes!
I will get pics of the new bits and pieces and post them later on

Re: Twiss' Build/Breakages Thread!
Another raving review for Llama.
So how you getting it to wagtail on that front diff? Or is it still driveable?

Sounds like a better deal. I can get more for that weighing them in!
Let me know either way Twiss.
