Not sure what you mean...

...but I would only tack FU1 and 2 in place anyway, until the time comes to set up the suspension brackets and weld them.

I fully welded these pieces in place when I started to make my chassis - and had to cut them away and re-make them when I got to fixing on the suspension.


Or had you some other reason for asking?

Not sure exactly, but after speaking to MK he pointed something out, that we would have missed otherwise- the tops of them shouldnt line up exactly to the edge of the chassis sides, but be inboard a few mm, otherwise the castor angle gets buggered by the rear of the top wishbone moving out, thus the endpoint moving forwards... Hope I explained that OK!
