Drilling a hole all the way through the chassis is work, you're right. But I really like the 48 spline system from SCP with the ability to get "any" diameter bar. And I already have the bar and alu arms for the rear. This is a work in progress and if I discover another/easier way I will take it mate! If you look at the picture you will see the bar running under the chassis. This reduces ground clearance by 1 5/8" at the bearings and that measures 3 3/8" inches to the road surface.

So with a name like MickMate do you have any connection to Australia?
