I think that's what i'll do,to be honest my welding skills back then weren't up to snuff,hence the reason I paid someone to install the crossmember in the first place,don't get me started on the 'bespoke' rear 4-link! (it was downright dangerous)

Thanks for your input.
P.S. I've even considered tearing the whole lot out and fitting a Jaguar IFS! dang
