Obviously didn't explain it very well. The rear stays go from the top of the rollbar to the bottom of the chassis at the rear, and are tied into the rear suspension structure. I used some stress analysis software to ensure that the design was sound (my first job after uni was as a design engineer).
I'm totally happy to make it up as I go along, I agree that's the fun. If I didn't want to, I'd have bought a kit. I was just trying to work out the best way of remedying my current situation, as I have a completed 'book' chassis that I was loath to cut into again.
Hope your shoulder feels beter soon.
Cheers
Adrian
