It has bits of box section that slide into the ends of the chassis rails, these are not an exact fit and need packing out with bits of scrap timber to take up the slack.

The delux jig looks a great bit of kit but being tight iam thinking of the basic jig they do its only £115 plus postage it needs welding together but that shouldn't be too hard will let you know what it's like cheers
