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