Think this is the one £17:50 from paddock. Or there is a rear body cross member £109

If it's the rear cross member that mount the rear of the body to the chassis I would say it's this one from Paddocks

LRD157 - Rear Body Crossmember @ £109.00

If it's just the mounts onto the chassis that have gone and not the main crossmember itself then I have a contact that makes new mounts.

Just cut the old ones off and weld the new mounts in place, saves removing to whole thing!!  :wink:

See this thread (http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=14948&highlight) for details.  :D

I made my own out of 1.6mm plate. Not too bad a job to do as long as yo have something to weld on to  :cry:  :wink:
