Gti-6 On Stand

Recommended Posts

kevp's 205gti

I came to put my gti-6 on a engine stand today using hi tensile bolts and they kept bending due to only being able to use a small diameter bolt any one else had this and if so how did you get round this?

A larger diameter cannot be use, can it?

Hi Kev,

 

Please excuse the vagueness of this reply.

 

I mounted my GTI-6 lump directly onto a Machine Mart engine stand, utilising studding and bolts, but as this was over a year ago and I didn't encounter any problems I can't remember the full details.

 

I vaguely remember only being able to pick up 3 of the 4 points available.

 

Will take a look and grab a pick next time I am over my lockup.

 

PM me your phone number and I will give you a ring from the garage and explain how my engine is mounted to the stand.

 

Damn - Lewis is now sat in the gravel.
