Though looking more closely looks like you have got the starts of a big one just left of your Jacking Mount.

May be time to look at a new crossmember...

Going to repair, as funds are tight at the moment although Black Sheep gave me an excellent quote. The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

Yeah. Guys at MID engineering are gonna sort it while I am away next week.

Only a temp fix as will get the black sheep upgrade when funds are a little more available. The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

I wouldn't fit a standard rear cross member. Black Sheep will be where I will go in a couple of years...fantastic quality work. The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

Clive at Black Sheep is defiantly the place to go this is a picture when it was first fitted. It's such a great improvement over the original as it's real easy to clean. Thumbs Up
