Ok, think the NZ mount is a little different to this if I remember right, a lot better :D ( but could be wrong ) will take picture and upload tomorrow, I think a engineer could make this up cheap, it was the idea behind it I am talking about.

Baz-, cheers for those pics, there is some difference between yours & the one that Rumax uploaded. With my diff being under the springs, maybe the ones with added angled/stepped bracket is what im after? ???

Marky-, what if I found some top mounts from a van that mounted on the inside of the chassis & had them welded on, would that probably be my best solution, or, do you know if these jumbo style bottom bracket may work? got a pair I can try out?
 :-\ :)

I have seen the Jumbo ones fitted to a SWB  under the diff  housing as the spring sits on top, worked a treat, not sure on the set up as can't remember, it was a few years ago.

Well, over the last couple a weeks, I've stripped down BOOHAG naked & have been givin' er a good full body massage, upgraded the hq 2 core rad to a v8 size 3 core...JUST fits!, well it doesn't really if you put a thermo fan up front. Deleted the mech fan, fitted the thermo & modified the grill panel to hide the thermo, works nice.
No windows in the rear anymore, including rear doors, cut up a couple of bens fibreglass fill in panels for those!
She wont be perfect, but a good freshen up, nice new satin black, peep mirrors, WURTH parking sensor kit, rear camera GPS setup from the states...think that's it ;)

Got the mirrors this week, 4" peep with 1" arm extension. LED turn signals incorporated in glass, these with backup camera, &  reversing sensors should keep the better half happy!
