but im making up fot it this week as im going to see another band on sat :beer: . so ive been making the tow bar set up spent 4 hrs sunday making it i was well chuffed with how it came out till i put the pics on my laptop to put on here and relized it wasnt right to the eye so monday i cut it all up and started again finished it of tonight . i have used a forklift over head gaurd again for the tow bar luky i had 4 bends left as i destroyed two messing the first one up i also had some 12 plate lying around as you do lol this took some cutting and drilling two 19mm holes i was blacker than the road after all the cutting i wore my spray mask ther was that much cr@p coming of it

next it was working out where to cut the bends out ofthe gaurd whilst working out the length and getting it all straight with only two hands it wasnt easy as i only wanted one weld to keep it strong

i m going to run a plate of this to the dif casing over three dif studs but because i can not slide the tow bar to the side ive got to make it in two pieces plus this will stop my axle turning any way this is where im at im really pleased with the way its turning out and all the fabrication work so far has only cost me £30 for the axle mount tubes

An odd observation, but the lower shock bolts are both facing the same direction.
Shouldn't they both be with the nuts on the inside?
