Red face Doooohhhhh!!

I trial fitted some bits today and it s thrown up some little snags( snagettes for the French)

1. I welded in one of the diff carrier plates upside down--I know! I know! stupid or what? --Is there any reason why the diff mounting brackets shouldn't be welded in?

2When I inserted the drive shafts they slid in til about 30mm from the face of the rear uprights .When I pushed them up to the uprights it was as if pushing against a spring --is this ok?

3 I remember seeing a post asking for lengths for dummy struts but I cant find it .Please bear with me asking again.

4. The long bolts in the bottom of the rear upright foul the wheels and need a bit cutting off .How much thread should be left showing when they're tight ?

Thanks in advance

Adrian

PS On the up side I am on the brink of a rolling chassis Hope to post some pics soon.
