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.
For the main hoop mounts you need to remove the box section and mounts from the chassis/body.
Your mounts can be tacked straight down to build up from.
Now position the main roll bar (MRB) on the mount. Tack the bottom allowing movement to set the lean angle.
offer the LAB and LLD to gauge the position of landing for the foot of LAB, mark this and then tack your front mount below it, measure the position and copy it on the drivers side (some trimming may be required for floor shape)
Now the front mounts are tacked in fit the front A bars (LAB/RAB) and the doorbars to ensure correct positioning.
once this is secure fit your Roof bar and roof diagonal and tack in place.
once you have all roof components and doorbars in place you can weld around all visible joins. DO NOT WELD ROUND THE MOUNTS OR FEET!
now you can break the mounts off the body and cage to remove, dropping the cage and allowing movement, you will need to ratchet strap the cage inwards to allow free movement to move the cage where needed to access all the hidden joins.
once the cage is fully welded you can lift the cage back up at the hoop, set the width of the hoop and fit the X bracing and harness bars and centre gussets, while theres still forward movement to allow access to all the joins between bulkhead.
now you have the X fitted man handle the cage back onto all the mounts and position it so all contours look even and snug.
with the front of the cage fully welded and in position you can now build up the rear backstays, use the images for reference, the rear tubes land at 930mm centres between the two, set the height just below the turrets, the length of the bars will tell you where.
Offer your rear legs up to the positioning marks (RB and LB), tack them in place, then fit the rear Diagonal
ensure everything is fully welded, now fit the door bar gussets and A pillar gussets, clean all the spatter and shes done!
