i had the adaptor plate so it would bolt on and allow me to get it in the right position then weld it up i then filled the holes up with weld for further strength

This is interesting!
I'd be really interested to see a side by side comparison of the vanette to 1000 stub axle/upright/hub carriers/whatever you wanna call it. I'm interested to know if putting a vanette stub axle into a 1000 will lower the car or change the camber.

I'll be following this thread!

heres a bit of info
the lower ball joint is a press fit type so i have had to make a 10mm plate that the ball joint presses into then i have to weld it onto the lower control arm
the upper is a bolt on type and the large hole in the top has to be enlarged and the previous bolt holes welded up then re-drilled to suit the bolt pattern of the balljoint ounce i have all this done i can then bolt it onto a parts car and see how the geometry is and if there is any scrubbing/locking
i will be taking pics as i put it together and what not
