    Cheers! As you know, I actually dropped it about 5" a few weeks back to get it engineered. It handles so much better though! I'm about to start working on making a set of tubed front fenders. So I'll be removing the original guard and flare and building a complete replacement, so I can fit 38"s with ease.

    Today I installed some bracing plates to strengthen the chassis where the steering box mounts. It was starting to crack and the walls were distorting. I use 6mm plates either side of the chassis and sleeved 2mm crush tubes between them. It has reduced the play in the steering considerably and it no longer has that loud intermittent clunk when turning. Will post some pics soon.
