Apologies in advance if this has been covered before. Just watched this YouTube video, would this be considered a cut and shut in the UK?

I've watched quite a few of this guy's videos, to my untrained eye he looks experienced.

Hell yes!

Looks like he did a good job though.

Makes it look like an easy 10min job. I bet it took him a bit longer though!

The gap between the rear wheels and the arch is huge when finished!!

It looks terrible. It may just be the suspension setup but something is very wrong.

eekrofl That is truly hysterical. I would certainly not want to be anywhere near that next time it gets ar$e ended!!

I think you could safely refer to it as a cut and shut and as already noted that wheel arch gap is ENORMOUS when it had been 'put back together!!!! I like the hi tech method of how lining the 'new' rear end up was dome too, all that laser accurate geometry etc etc... deer deer me, the mind does boggle. rolleyes
