I swapped it for a pressed steel one off ebay last night and it's nice and tight with no play now.



lol, don't know why I didn't think of that!




It wasn't touching at all when I checked (but was damn close!), by the time I got to IVA they were hard up against the seat backs all the time.
I had the cables pulled away similar to you, but they still managed to move and settle upagainst the chassis.

Seems to be sorted with the shorted brackets anyway.
Is the pressed Steel UJ the same length as the one you took out?

Thanks
