Tread Lightly
I'm sure if you get together with me and the apprentice surgeon, all the three of us can formulate a plan between us.
I will get the surgeon to trim chassis ends first, as that should open it up to many options for you.

I extended the chassis on my lwb jimny pick up by 300mm and moved the axle back the same to give a larger back bed and doing this it altered the wheel plan from original.
When it was done I rang dvla and explained what I had done and asked to a Iva/ sva test to be done. That lady gave me the direct number of the Iva office and after a a hour long conversation and many photos sent to them I was told it did not need one, and just to have a vosa mot which I found strange, but went along with there decision. Took the guys name and date of the call and noted and that was the last of it.
Too simple in my mind but hey.
Regards shortening snipers chassis it’s more of reducing the length after the axle so this would not need one regardless providing we’re not cutting away any structural mounting points.

Using that to fix the start and finish points would be a big help.... if I can borrow it for the fabby to make a jig from..... ?

The guy Was quite confident that a vosa qualified mot tester would fail if it was not up-to standard , but we all know there a law to themselves good days and bad days.
Example of a guy in a warm office that’s got to come out in the cold sprung to mind
