Fairly open ended question there dude. The fact that you have to ask suggests that it may not be the best idea for you to attempt it yourself and giving a better location than "bolto" might help people in suggesting a shop that's local to you.

Have a search through here and Pirate, there's a metric shit tonne of pics of exos around if you have a look.

EDIT: Fawk it, I'll save you the trouble cause my mum says I'm awesome. Go get a double black, some no-doz, and an 8-ball of filthy, filthy speed and click the link below.

If it's going to be road driven then don't waste time here, go and talk to your engineer. He or she's the one who's going to be saying yes or no.

If it's off road only then the general consensus is to have it as close to the body as possible whilst having enough room that it doesn't impact the panels if/when it flexes..... Oh and look up the word "triangulation", live it, love it, breathe it, become one with it.

.....and not trying to be rude but just so you know:

The forum rules wrote:The following is not a rule. It is simply a suggestion to make your stay in the forum more enjoyable

This is a forum, we have virtually unlimited capacity to hold letters within a post. There is no reason to use abbreviated TXTspeak here, full stop. You are sitting at full sized keyboard and can probably spell correctly faster on that keyboard than you can spell (TXTspeak) incorrectly on it, assuming you have been to school in the last 10 yrs where keyboard skills are routinely taught.

We can and will cope with minor spelling errors and mis-types, as everyone does it. We would generally prefer that people try as much as they can to use adequate and appropriate punctuation, and that capital letters are used at the start of sentences and for proper nouns for clarity and etiquette.

There are some of us crusty old farts that are definitely two fingered typists, that seem to take more pride in their online presentation, despite being far slower as typists that the young'uns who can blaze off 60-80 words per minute.

Please just try to be clearly legible to everyone.
