Howdy, I've just bought a second hand cargo barrier and I can't seem to work out how the mounts work.
Does anyone have a 75 series with a cargo barrier they could take photo's of the mounts to help me out.
I would really appreciate it.

Did it come with a mounting kit?
You need to drill holes in your car and attach the mounts.

Yeah it has mounting kit but I just have no idea which bits to use where, ha ha.
To be honest I don't know if its the full kit but I think it is. Seems to have enough mounts for one mount at the top either side and one either side down the bottom.
I don't mind drilling holes in the floor, thats easy to do. It's the mounts at the top on the sides I'm not too sure about. Seems to have threaded holes in the right sort of spot up the top above the windows but the thread seems pretty small. Smaller than the bolts that came in the kit.
Also this troopy was originally fitted as an ambulance so I don't know if that just means I'm screwed!

The kit will be 4 or 8 plates with 3 nuts welded to each.
You drill holes and poke them through, then bolt the plates in.
Then the barrier bolts to these.
Uses no factory mount points.
You need the manual to show you where to drill (although could possibly fudge it)

Milford actually use threaded plates no nuts or welds on them at all..
If you give me the part number of the barrier i will be able to get you some fitting instructions and a parts listing
From memory for each point there will be
1x threaded plate 3 holes in total
2x bolts the same lenghtt and dia and pitch
1 bigger bolt that will screw into the middle with the barrier strap on it.
1x grey metal plate with three holes in it
1x poss a grey plastic cover that has flip lid on it..
If you want send me a pic of your kit and i will tell you if its complete and if not i will be able to send ya stuff to make it complete...
