A good mornings work today with the other side of the rear suspension tacked in place. Not without trauma though as no amount of persuasion would make the ball joint engage in the bottom of the hub - it's even an official Ford part, bought from e-bay so despite appearing identical to the others, it may be from a slightly different model. Fortunately I had the scabby remains of one of the donor lower arms and was able to retrieve the joint from that, at least until I can find a replacement. Once this was all done, I re-checked the front frame for squareness, only to discover that it had skewed during tacking, on one side, so that will have to be re-done next.
