its not the adjustment that is my main concern, its the amount of play in the rear bushes.
even with polly bushes there seems to be tad too much for my liking.
if the straight bar will not foul the wheels i will make my own, i just thought it would touch the tyre?!?!?!?

It is very well made I must admit, you will not be disapointed with MEF.
