Hybrid_From_Hell Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Hmmm, As the header says, anyone got a drawing showing the positioning of the 4 main bolts and 4 top bottom bolts that allow a MileMarker to be bolted to a bumper etc. Having F.... "Rearranged" mine, I have taken it apart (Cue springs gear clunk oooer, how that fit back in ) and dropped the cases down to an engineering compnay to have the mullered threads sorted via inserts. As such making up the new mount need to know the bolt hole positioning, anyone got these please ? Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BogMonster Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 10x4.5 bolt pattern, pretty sure about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 10x4.5 bolt pattern, pretty sure about that. EH ? 10 x 4.5 ??? Knackered from 14 hour day, please explain for me as I am being thick ? Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_warne Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 EH ? 10 x 4.5 ???Knackered from 14 hour day, please explain for me as I am being thick ? Nige 10" x 4.5" measuring between centres? That'd be about the right sort of figues... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Ten Inches In One Direction Four and a Half Inches in the Other Ladybird Guide To Making A Winch Mount In Two Easy Steps 1 Draw a rectangle 2 sides 10" 2 sides 4.5" 2 Drill holes at corners or is that not what you wanted to know??

western Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Off back to armchair about time you took that armchair into the workshop & fitted a winch to it Loooooooooonnnnnnnnnggggggggggg day Nige it says this on the spec page "Bolt Pattern 10" x 4.5" (4 bolts, 3/8") "& with BM's ladybird guide you should be able to sort it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 (edited) Nige if you need other measurements from here if the link doesn't work doh didn't spot that was what had been already posted time I went to bed Edited April 10, 2006 by BogMonster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 Ah Ok with it now. Have you got it in solid works to save me time ? yes a very long day, very very long, 10 today - a mere walk in the park Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Have you got it in solid works to save me time ? Doubt it, cos that pic is straight from www.milemarker.com/images/d12-2.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Given the abuse you give that winch, is repairing the threads going to be OK? Somehow I'd feel uneasy about re-tapping and re-(ab)using that winch casing after it's been wrenched about like that, ali tends not to like that sort of thing Or is there some cunning engineering going on / me being thick?

Hybrid_From_Hell Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 Milemrker, stripped apart, impressive inside, very HD for its size! Lumps are up with Roe Engineering, who are machining out the rather poor quality inserts and shoving in much better ones, can't remember what they are called but they are a posh (and expensive) helicoil and far better.

BogMonster Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I have seen a MM gearbox (mine) in bits, and an XD9000i gearbox (somebody elses) in bits, and there is no contest in terms of the construction! The phrase "built like a brick [censored]house" springs to mind but I must admit I thought the casing was likely to be the weak point if anything broke. So far so good, but then armchairs aren't that heavy even with me sitting in them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
