Five Link Suspension Complete

Finishing off work on the 5 link rear suspension. Panhard rod now in position and fully welded. This required me making up a bracket to mount it to the de-dion ears in double shear instead of single shear for extra safety in case the rod-ends fail. I also had to fit tube "Y" and fully weld before placing the chassis to panhard rod mount on top. All bolt holes drilled out to 1/2inch and "S" grade 1/2 inch UNF bolts fitted throughout to match the rod-ends. Numerous washers added as required. All rod-end tubes welded up.
