I know Darran has two, one using the original subframe and the other a beam axle of some kind. The one with the subframe is a lot heavier apparently.

I was gonna build one a few years back and did a lot of looking around and research and the best idea i was given and saw was ditch the sub frame and use a nice set of coil overs from a motorbike. They are designed for less weight so suit a half mini very well and make it great to tow.
