That's looking like it's going to be very sturdy. That metal looks to be 5 or 6 mm thick. I haven't quite got my bearings here. Are these intented to bolt to the engine block so you can use the original chassis brackets?

yeah basically it bolts to the engine block utilising the 300 tdi bolt holes as well as the 2.5 td ones and then onto the standard 2.5 td chassis mounts, saving me the need to cut up my galvanised chassis.

Used mine to go and get the mother in-law who has been snowed in for several days. Just have to make sure I get her back before the next lot comes in.
