green-light-on Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 Hi Slippy theres a place in Nottingham called harold potters but i think you can get them from mechine mart but like you said old straps are the best go to a transport yard see if they are throwing any away i always put all four on as i was going long distance every day but i think you would get away with two one front one back oppisit side Gray.

Mid life crisis Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 Edited Slippy if you PM me your email. I will send you some pics, maybe some one on the board may have a contact for the bits you need. I have no idea how to post pics but I know you have mastered it. Quote

slippy Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 If you can out them on here mate go for it then others can see how you've done it or if you like PM me and I'll sort them for you Quote
Asterix Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 ditto the photo's...especially as i'm in notttingham Quote
Blatman Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Can I have some photo's too please? Internet nazi's at work block the avatars site so I can see feck all if that's where they are blatmanuk at yahoo dot co dot uk... Ta Quote
Crazy Eddie Posted October 25, 2007 Author Posted October 25, 2007 ^^^^^^^^ See those are the ones I had on my Brain James but the problem is that these won't fit a woodford etc and so was hoping people had adapted their trailer ie like it sounds like Gray might have done. Wishing I had kept the Minno now Quote
slippy Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 All you need is the hole in the deck that lines up with just behind the wheel and some of the triangulated ends they have on standard straps I can feel a late night visit to a truck stop coming on Quote
Blatman Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 Having been bombarded with photo's (thanks everyone ) as Crazy Eddie has said, it's all in the detail. I have a boggo Minno, so a look at the underside, and a look at the D ring in isolation, then how they're fitted would be really helpful. How are the D rings secured to the bed? No detail is too small 'cos I'm having trouble getting my head around it... Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 Looks like what's known as a T-slot. The Ring has a T shaped projection and there's an east-west slot in the deck with detents that inhibit the T piece from slipping and the T piece is rotated 90degs to fit through the deck then turned once engaged. Clever. Quote
Crazy Eddie Posted October 26, 2007 Author Posted October 26, 2007 Big thanks to Gray for sending me these photos. It makes sence to me now and am on a mission to get it sorted for this Saturday Does this help everyone now? The other photos show same sort of angle but also include regestrations which I can't smudge. Quote
