                Yes dave, a lot of head scratching and bewilderment

                dont mind paying the money for stuff as long as it doesnt give hassle,


                anyway, onwards and upwards,

                        i have enjoyed putting the bits back on, must admit i am quite fussy though and will not rush things for the sake of it, and will continue posting the pics,

                        • finally got the NEW cross member in place and the new rack /mounts/A' TCA etc etc all in place.
                          went to offer up the legs and old style RBTM and small holes did not match, out came the grinder (could have done with P.R.) and enlarge the holes slightly @ 1-2 mm and then braze weld existing three top mount holes, grind flush and re drill three fresh holes. Apply paint and lets have another go..........................







                          pics of top mounts look odd because of camera Flash and (very) shineeee paint, however quite pleased after a few hours unexpected work
