Back to the subject of the diff plates, the design of the chassis was intended to follow the Haynes chassis with only minimal / relevant changes required to fit mazda running gear. The car has had some good abuse now and thrashing about the estate, had a good look over the full chassis and everything looks fine, after all most of the weight of the diff is taken by the bottom fixing rather than hanging off the top frame. If there is any doubt though then sure upgrade the plate to 5mm.

All the Best.....AndyH

im sure the 3mm is fine too andy. nowt wrong with the design too. everything on your guide fits in perfect so far with my build anyway. im gonna leave mine till i fit the diff, then have a look at it from there. im not keen on the negative comments either, i like the good old saying of,

"if you have nothing nice (or constructive) to say, then dont say anything at all!!"

cheers,
