So with Osu and Shu! taking longer than expected, this one has been on the backburner but now with them out of the way, the Badger can finally continue to be rebuilt.
I've drilled the holes for the anti-capsize plates (much more than bars now) and attached them to the side panels. They still need nuts but they are in place and look... fairly gaudy without any paint :P They weigh a fair bit and are quite stiff so hopefully will not be ripped off again.

I had a question about my wheels recently and how they are fitted. They are literally drilled through the flat side of the wheel and mated to the flat face of the hub as below:

And here is the independent motor mounts for the Badger. The motors are set to the lowest rung on the Heavy Duty L bracket and they just about sit on the bottom part of the L bar.

The next thing to do mount the lifting arm motor on the new front lid that came last week and then see how well it does at the old self righting business.
