dirtydiesel Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Ah but if I fitted the winch we wouldn't have had as much fun extracting Filip & Peter Never have i seen a man so broken as when Filip realised it was a toolbox in the winch tray not a winch!

Daan Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Anyway, whats that winch hook doing on the cage? Seems dead weight to me. Daan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landy-Novice Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 isn't it for wading? saves trying to find the hook under water. i dunno why there's one on the drivers side, thats why you take slaves people out off-roading! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie69 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 may i point this out to you? Can I point this out to you -that's way below the windscreen line and nowhere near the winch loop on the passenger side... more likely for wing bars if you ask me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hasn't Daan got his tongue firmly placed in his cheek? Probably not, given Daan's obsession with adding lightness! Funny how Dan & Daan can be so different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bolt to the footwells, in a effort to give the bulkhead a little more rigidity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Says a lot that what is perhaps the most rigid panel on a Series III needs more support! Looks great though, really nice standard of fab work there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Wrong, Wrong and wrong. They bolt to the footwells, in a effort to give the bulkhead a little more rigidity. Well at least I didn't think it was a winch hook Very nice idea too -I find my series bulkhead wants to flop back and forward a fair bit too, in fact I am sure it is where some of the squeaks are coming from!

dirtydiesel Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 and i, Landy-Novice take the golden prize for getting it correct! You'd allready proved you were wrong by copying the pic into paint and circling the bit you were wrong about! Now back to the 109; So just as it was looking finished, i cut the ends off the rear x member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 It's amazing what a coat of paint does, that looks really unobtrusive now - except where my rubbish paintwork shows up the shiny new cage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CwazyWabbit Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 It does blend in well ... if you excuse the fact it is clean in comparison to the rest of it What are the plans for the rear cross member? is it strengthening to support the two down pipes from the roll cage?
