hello all. could anyone tell me what the drop below the pivot point on a jig should be to enable the shell to turn 360 degrees easily. on all pics it looks around 6 / 7 inches to the bumper brackets. has anyone got one they could possibly measure for me. i need to get 2 built so with cost of buying it is expensive and i have all the steel available already so will save me around £500. also will front and back be the same. i would imagine it would be. couple of pics of how adjustable ones work would be ok aswell. due to height in workshop i need shells to turn as close to ground as possible so would probably have to reweld a jig if i bought one anyway. thanks.

cheers mate. the drop from pivot to brackets looks around 190 mm. on you tube it shows a 3dr shell and pivot is 1/2 way up the rear reg plate.
measuring on mine it is about that distance. i would like to know for sure but could always make it adjustable.

cheers mate, appreciated. great idea and you were right. loads of ideas so should be sorted. will probably make them adjustable as this seems easiest way. will make them up and if right i will keep the plans available to email to other pf users as loads of threads on here on this subject but no measurements etc.
