What part of this has to be covered for SVA? I thought it was the lot or is it just the nut on the back? The main body seems more rounded than the unprotected wishbones.

Just the nut- no problems @ either SVA test....

in case the 'sharp edges' on the nut cuts someone, as their legs get smashed by the rest of the car. smashed legs aren't a worry, as long as the person doesn't get grazed

Similar to the Geneva convention. You can't have a dirty bayonet in case the person hanging off the end gets a blood infection. Same with bullets too. I lost count of the number of bullets I had to replace due to them being tarnished!

The first time they failed me on virtually everything but just covering the upper BJ nut wasn't one of them!!!!
