could some one please post some pics of there front cross member, my problem is i am about to replace the rusted out original piece on mine and i cant see ( cause rust has taken it away) if the outer arm from the front end gets bolted to the cross member or only through the side sill panel a picture of this set up would be pretty handy.. the inner arm is still there and is pretty visable....cheers

sorry blacky i cant work out how to draw on the bloody pics
, ill describe best i can, the pic is of the L/H side
to the left of the pic where the leg from the front end meets at the crossmember is the part bolted in some way to the cross member (under the feet area) i understand that the inner leg gets a bolt through the whole thing but the outer one seems a bit different, i am sorry but i dont know the proper names of these parts n pieces
, this is why a few pic's would be better for me to understand than trying to explain this to you's, hope this helps........

yep sort of, the first pic of the "outer leg" is the one in question but still doesnt answer my question if that part is bolted to the cross member at all ?? or is it mounted to the sill only but just sits in front of the cross member with out being mounted to it in any way

It is mounted to the end of the sill only- it finishes in front of the crossmember and is held n place on the outer side only by the bolt-i.e. the inner side of the leg has a 20mm hole and the outer side has a 10mm hole . HTH
