Very cool, that is a massive job u have started, hope it turn out well :cool:

How did u line up the 3rd member with the diff centre so the axles will be straight (both front to back and up and down), I imagine if it is the slightest bit out at the centre, it will be way out buy the time u reach the hubs. Have u got some special tools u are using, or jigs u have made up?

There is jigs, at this point though we stil have some play.

I have a 2m length of 45mm 4140 to use as an alignment bar to go the whole way though and have a modified 3rd member which also accepts this through where the bearings useually sit.
