    I got the crossmember and coilover mounts welded and polished up.









    I then made up the upper control arm mounts.
    My first thought was to use different amount of shims behind the front and rear of the plate to achieve camber and castor. This was a mistake as the plate is solid and shims will need to be applied evenly.

    I had slots milled in the plate and made up some eccentric washers to be able to adjust castor. I got this idea from the bolts used on the Ford upper arms of the IRS.

    Shims behind will adjust camber.
