Good find!

I will take a few off you. 10 should more than do it.

How would you like paying?

Thanks Handy, not quite in the final countdown, but getting dangerously close now! She's due on Saturday, so could be any time :eek:

Here's the mounting info for them, I'm planning to run an ally strip down the tunnel to attach them to:

That clips the dogs danglers. I was thinking of tack welding some of this down the entire length of the tunnel prior to powder coating to save drilling the shite out of the chassis for cable and pipe clips it comes in loads of different widths.

Chassis looking good. Clips? Yes please...
 
Skov,

your chassis is looking good. I'm very nearly at a similar stage, all the chassis welding done, just piddling about with brackets for engine, g'box and rad. mounts prior to painting.

Thinking one or two steps ahead, as one does, I already had it in mind to run a strip/channel down the trans. tunnel to secure the 'services' to and your clips look just the job. Like you, I don't fancy drilling too many holes in the chassis to mount stuff on.

The fixings you have sourced look just the like those I had in mind. Thanks for offering your surplus to the forum. Have you any left?

I think 10 would do; spaced at 150 mm (half the width suggested in IVA manual) that number would cover a length of 1500 mm, which is plenty enough to get through the trans. tunnel.

How much and how would you like to be paid?

I have some ally angel to act as a services tray to go in my tunnel, that way I only need 2-3 fixings to the chassis and it's a darn sight easier to work with.

I've got some 30mm x 3mm ally strip.
Going to run the fuel and brake lines along the top on the drivers side, and the wires along the bottom on the passenger side.
Made a start this evenning, just need to rivet the strip to the chassis, then clip my lines in place :D
