Pull or push?

Yeah, I am from the south--any further south and I would have been a bloody penguin.

Paul,
        everything that I have built recently is 2.2 legal so in some cases I have the diagonal in the rear end bay to mount the pivot or I just make a standoff from the bottom rail as seen in this photo of Brendan Murry's car.
