yes an irish one, no I've had problems with rear alighment, so I connect the front half of the frame and the rear two mounting points and tacked all the frame in place etc.....then went from there.

It does seem like a lot of effort for an exhaust and ARB mount. But looks good.

has anyone thought of mounting radius arms straight to the shell? maybe using a cage to replace the 'stiffness'

Why have a subframe or beam at all?

This is a nice simple solution.

I like the Kad rear ARB position to. For use with a rear beam as opposed to a sub frame.
