Default My new mk motorsport 6 degree beam

I asked mark to make a new beam for me as I wanted a few charges to my other.
He's done a fantastic job.

I wanted it to be easy to adjust instead of hitting it back and forth, mark came up with an adjuster like a motorbike back wheel.







I wanted extra support to use coilovers




Also wanted twin rose joints to do away with the ford bush as they are expensive to replace



I had 3dr trailing arms and the arb pick up points are on the opposite side so mark added some more so I can use a escort arb




Double skinned inner arms so should reduce the amount of flex.

hi
probably about a pound ,as the original bush is very heavy ,the rose joint is lighter and the adjuster is alloy and there is a 8mm bolt and a couple of plates so very little really

I've already got a stage 2 rear beam from another company, had it for about 6 years now. How much would it cost to get this style adjusters fitted to the arms?
