Military Lightweight Forum

Hard at it final push! I’ve only got two weeks before I have to get it out the body shop where I’ve been working and into the garage!

Started fitting these lashing cleats! I’m two short and I’ve just seen the price on craddocks! God I love the availability of parts for lightweights

Fitted the seals for the bulkhead vents! Really pushing to try get as much done as I can before xmas

Just need the tape to hold for about three years and the vent seals might finally stay in place.

Regards,

That's coming along great. What's going on with the tailgate hinges Callum, the chassis mounts look fine?

Hi Jamie so when I’ve offered them up to the truck there about an inch out! Unless I’m doing something completely wrong I’ve not got a clue. I suppose if they’ve been welded wrong that the only explanation.

Hmm, I'm not sure too tbh. My initial thoughts were that the bracket on the chassis was okay but having looked again and the fact both tailgate hinges would be short, I'm now thinking it is the chassis bracket.

Christmas jobs eh

Now im trying to line up the floor holes but I feel the spacers I’ve put in the bulkhead bolt has pushed everything out of sync…. Problem is I can’t get the doors right without the bolts
