New steering UJ turned up today, hopefully get that fitted tomorrow.

Sorted out my handbrake cable interference issue by cutting and rewelding the brackets that hold the cable ends on the caliper. Should bring the cables away from the chassis by about 1/2 and inch.

Which universal joint are you / were you using. I have checked mine (from rally designs) and there is quite a bit of movement.
