My intention was to retain the front cross member but just cut down & strengthen the centre section as required.
I have attached an image of a car i have seen which has modified the girling type arms as i previously discussed, but from your advice this would cause an antiroll bar effect. I liked this approach as it seemed fairly simple and kept the car looking relatively standard looking without adding twin tubular arms.
If i was to move the cross member back, could i just extend the arms?
Thanks for posting these photos, it was seeing your bracket that got me thinking on the need to lift the steering box, Have you welded on the bracket or is it bolted?

A clearer photo taken earlier on.
