Right - have a look at these. It would seem that with some nifty joggling you can use only two plates to do the front and rear. They are quite big pieces of plate, but I will get them laser cut with the rest of the platework so shouldn't be too expensive. They will do all the suspension mounts, you just need to then sort out the shock mounts. The idea is to use studding to accurately set the back and forth alignment and a few little spacers will make life easier

These are still a concept at the moment and not tested, but if anyone wants a drawing or even the DXF files to try them they are welcome but you do so at your own risk

i must say that looks bloomin clever stuff, i wouldn,t have a clue how to create that on a computer,

how did you come up with the idea in the first place? great "thinking outside of the box" , clever stuff

Good idea.
Can I ask what format the chassis model is in? And is it freely available? Would save me starting from scratch if it is.

Oh nice job. I have my brackets on but wouldn't mind a copy of the file. I may well have a set cut for next time!!
