      After stripping down the last of the suspension, it was all dropped off at the powder coaters.
      While there he noticed a small hole so suggested that he would blast it that night and then for me to pick it up and weld it.

      This was not the case though.



      After blasting.....










      So after a bit of thinking I decided to source another subframe. Not the easiest to get hold of clean ones and as I need one sharpish, I contacted Will @ VRS and he managed to send a CQ one out to me.
      That arrived yesterday so after work set out to change the ARB and track control arm mounts over.








      This was dropped back at the powder coaters this morning and hopefully should be done by the end of next week.
      I'll update more soon.
      Not sure but you might need to mod it??

        If the CQ subframe doesn't have the ARB mounts then you will need to cut the old ones off and fit onto the new subframe as posted above.
