Glad to see the auto acquitted itself and gave you a good run for your money. :laugh: :laugh:

Yes it helps to have done it a few times. I have just done one on a Rav4 but it is so complex it is unbelievable. Each corner is different so had to design and make four individual brackets.......total nighmare..........nothing like the Jimny, SJ, Vitara!
