Thats 4 of the links Rich, just waiting to see what comes up axle wise whether to go Panhard rod or Watts linkage for the 5th.

Will probably go for a Watts linkage and do it properly though!

Trying to do it myself.. but the diff tunnel doesn't seem to fit into place too well really (doesn't match the lines of the floor pan!)

Just made a mock up of it so after some grub i'll see about modding it!

And if that doesn't work, the Zoo can expect a phone call / mk1 dumped outside their unit

Well thats the thing, you cut the floor pan out, but you have to leave enough spare to fold up as a welding flange for fixing. But then some parts seem to stick out about an inch from the side of the current diff tunnel and an inch off the floor.. nothing to fix them to!!!
