Hhehehehehe pringa, cant help urself can you!.

I can help you here as I have already done this on my Kestrel. Its actually a big job to prepare the beam but the actual fitting is not so hard. VWCool is quite right, it wont bolt straight in.

U2U me and ill give you a detailed breakdown of whats necessary.

Where are you?

Might be able to help you out.

Dont worry, i'm under no illusions about it being an easy job!!:lol:

I've got someone to build one up for me using a rather neat shock set up with height adjustment, etc.

Just looking for a h beam with the ball joints to build up, preferably close to Canberra as I imagine shipping would cost a million bucks!
