tray mounting options
Posted: Mon May 09, 2011 8:57 pm
I have come to the stage where I need to make a tray for the 80 series, I have a design in my head but I am unsure how to mount it to the chassis.
I was thinking of fish plating the chassis where the mounts need to go and with a 15mm pad on the plate tapped to accept 4 bolts and mounting the tray to this. However I am not sure if this will cause stress point due to the chassis wanting to twist forward of the tray area.
The other option I was thinking was mounting it by using rubber bushes similar to these
