They’re a pair of galvanised subframes on EBay for £270. I had a pair done and it cost more than that and I had the hassle of blasting first. The only irritation was getting extra long taps to re thread all the fixings, once done they will last for ever.

Good spot that! Did they sell? The auction has ended.
Re: TF galvanised subframes on EBay
I presume they sold, after adding the thread the next day the item was gone. It was a good deal but the galvanising which is only a few thousands thick reduces various clearances. Getting the front wishbones in place was an absolute nightmare despite silicon lubricant being slathered all over the recesses and the polybushes themselves.
