No x bracing of the 2 down brackets, massive vertical weld on the chassis, it looks like, and a course thread control arm bolt that isnt a nyloc, and/or no lock nut........ ?

I thought I saw you perving ......... :shock: :lol:

Yea, correct BJ, different bolts & nylocks in there now.

ATS, are you saying there should be a brace on the other side of the radius arm bolt back to the chassis ??
How then do you get the bolt through ??

No ats that is an early pic

Doug with x-bracing he is talking about the plate between the two ears of the mount.

That bolt now has a spring washer and nyloc. It is still a HT M18 bolt which is 50mm longer than required so it would have a full 18mm sholder between both plates.

Yes it is a down weld but it is not completely vertical the picture is playing tricks.
