no need to come across as a nob after you were humble enough to accept your initial mistake

the rear end won't come off :roll: as stated in the advert the 2 guys who were responsible for that part of the build were/are both qualified mechanical engineers - obviously you are not. there is no major extra stress on the back part of the van since the drive is on the front most axle the chassis has been strengthened over and above what is necessary the morris minor you posted seems to have been on the road for quite a while with a far inferior rear suspension design and that hasn't fell off

also insurance is not a problem there are many converted 3 axle vehicles all managing to get insurance

like this one for example

Isn't Luke the big boss man who put this wonderful site into motion with the help of admin, IT, mods etc

We all have an opinion but some are best kept to ourselves. N

1st you mistakenly thought it would scrub rear tyres not understanding how it was built - it was then pointed out to you how it was built - you admit you were wrong

but then because you felt offended by ake's comment you decided to hava go back and all you could think off is it would break in too - after that was pointed out you were wrong you then think i'm stealing the money :roll:

one thing after another - just proves to me your a keyboard warrior - happy to dish it out but can't take it :lol:

i dont mind people raising valid concerns - i'll happily explain why there is no issue with the safety of this van :D but i suppose his opinions of me stealing the money should have been kept to himself :lol:
