Fit the rear hub carrier into the end of the radius arm. Align the holes of both parts and secure with 2 CM screws. Insert the end of the link into the hole in the bracket and add a EM screw. Secure the bracket to the side of the frame with a BM screw. Place the hole at the end of the arm over the post at the side of the frame. Add a EM screw into the post hole. Place the end of the link between the 2 uprights of the rear hub carrier and pass an HM screw through the holes. spike attached the following image(s): Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.

That looks like a nice full pack of parts to be working with. Just looked back over your earlier updates and really do like that yellow light cable you are fitting to the wheels. Its turning into a very solid looking model. Hope it all continues to go well. Happy Modelling

Hope it all continues to go well. Hi birdaj2 thanks for looking in, the yellow light tube is a lot better then the LEDs but they don't let off a lot of light like the LEDs do. I will be sticking to the LED strip lights in the wheels. I will also put some pics up when i get all 4 wheels fitted with lights. So far the build is good and had no problems getting issues. I am still waiting for EM to send me issue 3 out  . Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.
