-This kit is Designed for easy assembly for anyone with welding and fabrication abilities.
-The Kit is CNC notched, marked and labelled.
-Look at the images below for reference as to where the mounts sit, use this to gauge where to remove unused body components from, give your self a good size area to work with, then clean all the paint from the chassis in the areas of mounting, this will save lots of time.
All mounts will have a captive nut which needs to face down in the car
using the images as a reference tack the hoop mounts in place ( you may need to mark and drill holes for the captive nuts to set into)
bolt the matching footplate on top
Position MRB onto the mounts ensuring the positioning markers at the top are facing the back for the backstays and tack the inside of each leg enough to secure the hoop under its own weight but still allow movement.
offer LB/RB up to the hoop and gauge where it will land and mark it
the distance between the 2 backstays at the bottom should be 1160mm centres
mark this and position your rear mounts and feet accordingly (120x60mm 3 mm rectangle plates with 3 holes)
now position LB and RB tacking them in place, check D1 lines up with the markers.
offer LAB or RAB into position to check hoop position looks correct
using the doorbars as a reference mark the landing position of your front feet and tack the mounts in position.
once the front mounts are tacked in you can fit the LAB & RAB tacking the front leg to the foot plate and using the saddle clamps to join to the hoop ( rotate saddle to get best possible fitment )
loosely clamp a pair of saddle clamps to each end of the RFB
lift the bar into place over head so it is as close to the roof structure as possible ( you need clearance to remove and fit)
now fit the doorbars with the saddle clamps on each end
once everything is tacked inside the car, weld everything that is easy access, but not the saddle clamps (you may weld both together so you cannot separate)
make sure the saddles have decent tacks on so they dont break.
once you are happy the cage is secure unbolt it and remove to complete the rest of the welding including the saddle clamps
be mind-full that your cage may contract after welding so recheck the mounts after the cage is welded before welding the mounts in place.
once happy the mounts still line up fully weld them in place
