WTF , that I didn't have Boots or I glued it together offset and didn't notice it . Teh only issue I had was with the bonnet, self made problem. I pimped the engine, as mine has the side panels removed, and that pimping made the engine to high which collided with , the bonnet . Still she's lookin' fine from here mushty, and I reckon in your hands this problem shouldn't be be too much trouble for thee

Thanx Paul.........yeah my own fault for assuming......, everything fits together superbly but when i look at the rear cab wall i can see the slight angle showing up against the rear deck........as i said.......a small dowel will solve the issue

Looking better than ever Mark. the slight alignment problem could be solved using the proven, tried and tested "Bill" method............wreck the ferking thing!!!!!! rust , wear, more rust, missing this that and the other, then all the worries are gone!!!!!!! Looks out of whack? well its just been hit with something nasty, what do you expect? just an idea bill

Dicky....LMAO, cheers bud , it`s kinda weird that the slight twist doesn`t affect the wheel stance, all the sussies are in the right place so you would think it would be fine elsewhere,the problem lies with that single pivot point of the front.......two attachment points would be different cos i could pull it down square......with only one it pivots even when C/A`d 20 times , that slight left/right rockin` motion allows for one side to be lifted higher due to the chassis twist.........i tried the dowel......and broke the front spring mount AGAIN!!!!! .........i`ve now slung in copious amounts of C/A Gel and weighted one side in the hope it will remain level ..........here`s hopin` Pete....thanks bud, glad ya approve
