| Mantec Non-Winch Plate Fitted |
|
Great, the rain stopped today and was able to fit my Mantec plate. Not at all difficult. Just remove the old Plastic cover, and four bolts (Heavy duty supplied) Mantec is on.
I found it easier to lift mantec into position by using a bottle jack and a small plank of wood. Less stress and held in place while bolting/torqueing up.
All I need to do is go play now, and yes the side steps ARE coming off Ken and Simon

Stick some copper ease on those bolts if you ever want to get them off easily again
'bout time you took the steps off, we could have done it at the meet but there was already enough blood, sweat and tears around The End
