Thanks lads :)

Hopefully this weekend il be able to finish this and start to think about the front axle, still sating on parts from various places, but I am heading in the right direction now at least.

Trying to figure out how I can make my new front axle stronger, I think il do the same as the rear but try and make the long truss go all the way to the hub, I have rockwatt knuckle gussets on there way to me which are hench !! So hopefully they will stop the swivel housings bending again.

Went for it this evening, just need to drill the top holes in the troff slightly bigger then I can bolt it all in again.

Also need to seem weld inside the troff box thingy.

And finish of the welding to the chassis.

Right I have 10 days to finish the rear winch befor the axle parts get here, going to get the front axle out one night this weeks and take of what I need from the bent axle and move onto cleaning the new and starting to fab up mounts and trusses and gussets ECT. This is the plan anyway.

I have a plan to test through the winter and next year start comping depending how well it holds up !!

Need to start to find me a winch bitch !! :)
