I made mine more or less the same as in the link to Sheps posts. I also picked up the 4 x origional bolt holes in the front of the chassis and these attach to the lower bar of the tube bar. Seems pretty strong.

When I did my RUF conversion I extended the chassis by about 200mm with 50x100 RHS, then reinforced that extension with 5mm plate either side running back into the original chassis, including replacing the original crossmember with more 50x100. Then I just bolted to that, strong as.
