you might find it's a bit underconstrained and the on-road handling will be shite with unpredictable/unacceptable roll steer?

left hand drive? I see a draglink and panhard roughly parallel (good), but left side steering box?? is this just a pic you've borrowed off another site?

is that panhard bent?? why??

housing strength is a minor issue, it's not rocket science to truss it up.

Excuse my ignorance, but shouldn't that link to the top of the diff be going to the roll-centre of the suspension - or somewhere near it? :?

Or does that only apply to 4 links (no Panhard)?

Or am I just ignorant? :lol:
