Was it the Alstar tail shaft loop from Chris Mills the one you purchased?Woo Whoo the cars back on the road. A big big thanks to Luke for all of the help, just need to clean of his grubby finger prints now. Thanks again. Will post up some more pics when cleaned up.Wheelgleam has done all of my polishing and more than happy to recommend them to people wanting something polished.

I then had to grind down some of the sides so I could use the hole on the end to go through the cross member bolt properly. Once I was happy with how it fit on the cross member, I tacked it together, checked it all fitted good, then welded it all up properly, tidied them up a bit then gave it a coat of paint.I decided to leave the loop part unpainted so its a bit more visible at scrutineering.This is how it looks fitted. Its very solid and sits within 150mm of the front uni, so hopefully its good enough. Edited 23/04/11 08:23 AM by XF Falcon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't lift any higher as it hits the floor of the car, and I can't chop make the loop halves any smaller as they won't touch the sides and bolt up properly any more.

If I ever bother to get a TS loop put in I'd be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
