I'm looking for the dimensions of the brackets shown in these photos of AndrewS's longshanks build if anyone has a rule and a spare five minutes please?

The drawing is one that sits on the body cross member, small gusset piece not shown but easy to guess the size. for the rear mounting rail I used a piece of 40mm box section and added mounts at the ends so I now have tie downs in the tub. Think I have a sketch for the centre bracket somewhere, same as ones across the rear.

Oldrover, that is immensely helpful thank you! I like your solution for the rear mountings too. If you do have a sketch for the middle bracket it would be very much appreciated. 1985 127 V8 Build Thread

Hi Shroppy, this is a rough sketch for the other style bracket, hope it helps, side flanges not on drawing but again easy to work out.
