For the naggers!

This shows the length of dowel I stuck on the front


How I held it in place whilst filler set!


This shows the end  where because the front went up, the rear section was no longer a straight line. So I cut it and extended it.


This shows the plywood strengthening pieces


And a couple more of the lip.

Cheers!


What I havent mentioned yet is that I will now be able to drop the front a little! Only about 10-15mm but think that will be worth doing.

Yea the height the splitter sits will now be 15mm higher. So I have the capacity to lower by that much without hitting kerbs.
