Pretty in pink II

Thank you Paul I'll try to get some 3/8 unf threaded bar but thay've all gone metric in Chorley

I believe you are getting electricity shortly as well ...

If you slide it in on a piece of carpet and brute strength you can go in under the arch/chassis leg, bit more clearance for less height lifted.

I think that's how I used to do it...but it's been a while.

Yep go in from underneath!

This is the way I did mine Steve.

Build the lot up mate, head on, belt on, dizzy, timed up, put gearbox on and starter, get the rack fastened to the xmember and lift it all in from underneath as a one'r

You can get enough clearance with the front end well up on axle stands , gearbox tail end on a trolley jack.

Try and get some long bar with 3/8th UNF thread on the end, screw into chassis and it guides the xmember straight up into place.

Cheers, Paul
