There will be some sideways force when using a panhard rod to align the diff but I cant imagine it enough to cause too much trouble. Bushes are cheaper than tyres anyway haha

Cheers for the input Dave you raise a good point. Always good to have other opinions and advice. Its not going to have heaps of travel so shouldn't bind too badly.

Took the car to Wal to get some work done. Very pleased with the results cheers mate! Got the rear guards redone as I ruined the last ones trying to get the wheels to fit.

More clearance under the rear doors and a slight flare. Gets pretty low now with only slight rub on one side.

Got the front valance put in again, this was always missing to allow room for the fans, the fans are now on the engine side of the radiator.

And a wee diff bump to stop my big dick diff hitting the floor.

Looks mint man. Wal is pretty good with those sweet wee 1200 flares now isn't he haha. If I ever get mine done I'd say an awesome 1200 park up is in order :burnout:
