Shouldnt they curve the other way?
I would have thought so too, curved upwards to keep it on the rubbers.
I'd watch it using those bmw, the first/second time you want to remove them they will snap. then you have to make another hanger.
I may have missed it, but what's the plan for this, I assumed a dry build of sorts, then remove/sort bodywork etc. I see you're fitting brake pipes though, does this mean you're just running as is/tidying the little bits up when it's up and running?
[EDIT] Ignore me lol. You can just replace the threaded part. lol
nah the exhaust hangers are right, i hope! the top hook welds to the car, then it all hangs down. i will put the brackets on the opposite sides, to stop it trying to rip its self off.
any better ideas are welcome!
the plan, work through my to do list, dry build effectivly, remove the engine, sort out the engine bay, and then put the engine back in and wire up.
I also thought the brackets looked wrong but if you think they are right then fair enough.
look at this pic and please advise me.,
body work at the top, wth the top bracket welded to it....

In my opinion, it should look like this:

That way its less likely to slide out when cornering.
ahhhh i see.
yes you are correct, as the weight of the exhaust is pushing down etc etc.
i shall bend them the other way tonight.
thanks alot :D
No problem.
much better!
ok done a small amount of work, im stacking up the work, as im on holiday soon so gonna do the work on the car in the daylight hours!
some anti roll bar brackets for the rear, going to be welded to the car.

Surely an airbox would be better? The filters look squashed against the M/C. Look good though. I see the death rad brackets are still there...
LOL to the rad brackets, yeh i havent been arsed to change them yet, the rad hasnt fallen off. when i find my constructive mojo ill make some :)Quote:

and having those filters squashed shouldnt affect it a massive amount. as a future upgrade i will put in a bias brake servo which will be smaller. and then change the filter set up :)
thanks
Loving the build, please get rid of those nasty rad mounts tho
lol as above :D
in due corse
photoshop them then please
what photoshop them out lol?
if so no. just dont look at them lol
worth a try.......
lol ill just remake them in a couple of weeks when im off work :) until then i will try to take pics with out them in !
