Just reached the same point you did and have exactly the same problem - about a 3mm gap between FF2/3 and the suspension bracket. I've checked and re-checked the dimensions but for the life of me can't see where I've gone wrong.

I'm going to do the same as everyone else and pack the brackets out, but if I was to build another roadster I think I'd add four blocks to the jig for the front frame so that the tubes end up in the right place. As far as I can see the suspension mount points are the part of the structure that has to be correct, and their position is just a function of how well you align everything else. Any errors get magnified because of the angles involved.
