Dimensions Of Solid Beam Mounts.

[mudchute 0]

Hey all,

 

Does anyone here per chance know the approx dimensions of the rear beam mounts?

 

Reason I ask is that I wantto machine up my own to save some money but I need to order some materials and need to know what size to get.

 

Ta!

I have had some made up by a local machine shop, Going to pick them up later this week.

if they are a good fit il post up the exact dimensions.

Unless anybody has any objections since some people on here sell them on ebay iirc.

quite handy i suppose since they can be made for a few quid

What material have you used? Nylon?

 

Tempted to do this myself, the ones available online are a ridiculous price for what they are.

I will post them up asap then.

Yeah they are nylon, both the sandwitch mounts and top hat bushes.

can make them out of nice bright colours aswell.

Thats the ones going up through the boot floor, not the top hat ones!

I use a crush tube in the middle of the black nylon. Most cheap solutions don't. You'd be surprised how much these cost to make.
