Fitting side planks

Post by nicq »

I know that in the past I have seen a drawing of the dimensions for fitting the side plank brackets but I cannot find it in the wiki.
If somebody has a link I would be very grateful.

Bentley manual has drawings and measurements for the body kit side planks, i have a body kit to fit for a customer, its a double slide door van so using half a lhd original vw kit and the other half No more rusty bits reproduction which is quality workmanship. They also give you a photocopy of the bracket fitting page from the original drawings.

Thanks multisi .
I have a twin slider, I made the other side by cutting a standard offside and with a fair bit of fiberglass work remanufactured to match the nearside.
Not too difficult but very time consuming.
