This is really doing my nut in now. Jim managed to straighted the front A pillar bars so hopefully this weekend we can get some more of the cage fitted.How ever custom cages f*cked up again and sent me the new stays too short. I think they are off the multi point cage. So another email to fix it tomorrow |
