Pop into a local metal ahop/engineering place mate, not some mainstream company just a little place. Amd show them what you want done, I cant imagine them wanting anymore than £10/£20 at most. I always do it this way myself and there always happy to help.

I found the drawings from difflock needed tweaks, yeah the bolt patterns for the chassis and mount are correct but they didn't properly position the steering box when welded together. i lowered and clocked the steering box for better positioning.
