one of them nice little sites that just shows you how


build em to the strength and weight appropriate to ya car.

wickes M10 threaded rod won't really cut the mustard :)

Thanks for that Kev.
There is no way I would have found that big orange button with "Traction Bar design" written on it so you have saved the day.
Thanks again.
