Default Leftovers


You know when you've rebuilt an engine and you end up with nuts ,bolts etc
and you have no idea where they go!!!

Well I've just about finished tacking my chassis together and I've these little CP24 triangle thingies and cant find where they are supposed to go.

Anyone know

Thanks

AYJAY

Under the front lower wishbone bracket, the one nearest the rear. If that makes sense.

how important are these plates? as i apear to have forgoten them, chassis is fully painted now aswell If they are to add extra stregnth to the join between br1/br8 and br2/br9 do you think id get away with leaving them out seeing as ive added extra large 6mm plates for the engine mounts to sit on? I cant even find any mention of them in the book apart from in the appendix.

Well, if they have any structural function other than supporting the brackets, your engine plates compensate for it and then some! If the suspension brackets have enough contact with the chassis then I would not worry.

Are they supposed to reinforce that long triangle formed by the bottom rails?
