ahebron Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Feel free to copy my build. It is all common sense and hydraulics. I reckon it could be built with out welding, just use nuts and bolts 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wagger Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Well done! Hope that it stays put when you use the car. I was thinking of using the part that adjusts the bonnet that has LH and RH threads with a sturdy tie rod. If you don't wanna use the rear seats, you coul create a 'Triangle' between the post an prop tunnel, That'll be a permanent fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wagger Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 OK Guys, I measured the overdrive front to back and it would fit with the mods that you have all suggested. Remaining problem (apart from the sump) is that the 2500 front plate is still in place with its mounting extensions. It is a big(ish) job, so will leave it as is for now and try to enjoy the remainder of this 'Summer?' All drive shaft bits have arrived, so will crack on.

PeteH Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 HI. Or the timber and scaffold pole version. Maybe IF I had to do it again, I`d build something more "engineered". but It did actually work!. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
