Correct

$256

so all up including fitting its not a cheap alternative, but then thats not the focus of the build. I want it to be the best i can make it and that means using the best engineered bits I can find, that comes at a cost

Mate if you look at the vid, it uses the rhs panhard chassis mount and they add a lhs chassis mount. We have a lhs panhard chassis mount and you would need to fit their lhs mount to our rhs! At a quick glance, this is not going to work unless they do actually make one for RHD vehicles!!

Might need to jump back on the creeper and spend a little more time under the rig and then shoot off a few emails to confirm before spending the bucks!

Um... no, have another look , then crawl under your JK and you will see how it works.

Yep did both, then posted! You are aware our REAR panhards run opposite to the LHD ones (thanks Yom) it's not just the front that is flipped!!

Yep as i said i've been under it every night for the last 3 nights going over how to do it. Not only will it work, but it will be without any modification to the kit or JK.

Ok so you agree that the lhs bracket will need to be mounted to the rhs chassis rail on our JKs...
Now you see how the bracket mounts on the slope of the chassis rail...you also see that the bracket is not symmetrical.... So if you flip it fit the slope ofthe rail it will point out into the wheel bay and the open end will not face the torque rod for the watts link.
So rather than attitude please show me what I'm missing! I only suggested it doesn't look like it would work and maybe a confirmation email to the manufacturer to possibly save you alot of money and time. I certainly did have a good look before posting and don't post for the sake of posting.
Now if by chance I am correct I still think this can be done either making your own bracket or the manufacturer might if you inform him of the EU and Aust market requiring rhs chassis rail bracket.

Completely agree

Nope I think you are wrong in your assumption, simple flip of the bracket would result but that's not the way.

no attitude, simply dont agree with your analysis, you have my apologies if I have unintentionally ruffled your feathers. Instead of going back and forwards Ill take some photos and overlay it and markup how I intend to do it so you will understand, easier than trying to explain. it'll give you a chance to see and show me where I may have got it wrong.
