BONNET LIFTERS
hot season's coming...
ford sierra sapphire bonnet lifters.
(still no tip top aligned, but as usual it was a rush job).
(now wearing junkyard citroen's steelies, 5.5jx14 ET24, on both front and rear axle. still 185/65 14 tyres and stock suspensions).
dedicated to anybody who needs 'em.
if you don't wanna bother and spend time by cutting and drilling, just bump this one to your local laser cut shop.
it may be cheaper than purchasing a set. here definitely it is.
obviously the cheapest is do it yourself. do your math...
i made a +30mm set and a +50mm set (5mm thick).
each set needs four M6 washers, 5mm thick. because they'll fit like this.
these washers could be either left loose or tack welded on the plates, as i did...
when welding, just remember to keep a simmetric picture in reference to the slotted hole.
the +30mm set...
the +50mm set...
there's also a tongue inside each fender which might need to be pressed in with a soft hammer, but no big deal. (sorry no pics of this, you'll see when working on it...)
hope this helps...
