    The pic is taken straight on from the tyre. So kind of on an angle. Bit the spring and shackel all line up fine with the chassis. Upon further inspection of the swivel hub I found the bottom bearing in about 50 peices. Thats where this camber issue come from

    Sorry for the delay in updates guys.
    So far ive replaced all seals and bearings in the drivers side swivel hub (Fixed that camber drama). The body is so far 75% rust free, only the floor pans to go. Then sand/prime/sand/sand/sand/prime sand/paint/sand/paint/airbrush/clear coat. Any sanding I missed? Haha. Also as ive recently got my 25 posts up ive now got access to the manuals, thanks heaps guys. However I can only find the mq manual not the mk one. Any help or links please? Cheers, shorty

    As for your bulbar check out "MAKEITFIT"s bulbar build from the UK basically a winch cradle
    with triangulated wings either side great bar IMO even if makeitfit destroys it first time out
