Diff mounting plates and seat mounts.

[ozzy1]

Cant see it being a problem being bolted to box section , i would bolt right through the box section.I think you are supposed to use large load spreading plates under the bolt/nut but 2 points to think about are;

1 If you are mounting the seats on runners this will raise the seat height quite considerably.

2 If you decide to change the seats or runners in the future and cant use the original holes there wont be enough room to slot the holes or drill new ones.

Dunno if that helps much really

Thanks for the help.

I want the seats mounting 75mm higher, due to the shape/thickness of the fiberglass (so i can see properly over the steering wheel) - so the box section won't be a problem.

My plan is to make a frame that bolts to the seats, then weld this to the runners, the runners will then be bolted to the box section which goes accross the footwell in the chassis.
