Thanks guys...

I'm in Adelaide, SA and will have to have the chassis beam and torsion tested by (or in the precence of) a chartered automotive engineer. I know there are loads of Champion derived chassis and other custom designs register in Australia but i've scoured the Aussie forum and can't find an example of a registered Gibbs chassis.

I'm going to be using 2mm for 25x25 and 1.6 for my 20x20... The area that concerns me is the 'kinks' in the front frame. I think even with the Aussie mods triangulation they may be a weak point.

Can any one tell me the purpose of the kinks in the upright sections of the front frame? Will everything else fit if I rework this with striaght box section?
