WIP- Past to Present

How do you mean?
Ive just got to weld the spreaders in for the front, and then bolt it down.

Then make up some kind of box spacer for the b-pillar cage legs...

Wernt you moaning there wasnt room on the front for a foot/plate...

There isnt...
Im just going to have to put a bottle jack under the door bar to lift the cage slightly, onto the spreader plate, and then hammer it into place.
Or weld the spreader on the underside of the floor

Or cut a section out the dash under the side heater vents to give it a bit of clearance.

Why not trim a lil off then?

Did you fit that nice ground lead i gave you?

Yup, got that earth lead on, spot on. Right big bas**id :cool:

I'll probably just cut the dash a little bit. Ive already rewelded the feet back onto the legs, so cant trim those.

I would just weld it on the underside of the car? Thats what im doing on mine, doing the rear plates inside the arch too. Cant see why it would cause a problem, its still strengthening the mounting points

Got the front spreaders welded in today. Ended up welding them on the inside of the car/floor, just about managed to get the cage back in position, the legs are wedged solid against the dashboard lol

And then drilled the bolt holes for the front and rear cage feet :)

Just the b-pillar box section to make up now, and the floor to respray. Plenty of time for that though, Combe on 5th September... :)


Also got a spare drivers headlamp (cheers John), which im going hack at and make into a cold air feed :)

No probs ad, any pics of said progress?

No pics today mate, will get some when i next go back up my parents.
I called in on the way home from work, so had no cam on me.....

Nice work.
