As per photo, you need to re-use the lower axle brackets from Vauxhall axle and make some brackets to weld to top of the axle casing to take the two top arms. A jig will help ensure everything is nicely lined up. On my car I used all four Ventora axle brackets and the pan hard rod to make it a 5 link suspension.
