I've looked at all possibilities, but because the existing subframe has been cut and has a fair bit missing the cut will be just in front of the 'D' pillar, which is the rear of the crew compartment. Unfortunately the crew seat has to come out because it needs a fair amount of rust repairs.

Hoping to do this ASAP and will take lots of pictures. Euan has access to a plasma cutter so we can do nice straight lines - I find angle grinders are difficult to control.
