Cardboard Aided Design. Like it.

If anyone wants one, I can get my fab shop to give us a price.
If you can sketch up the dimensions once it's folded and let me know what thickness of steel it should be, I'll draw it up properly and get a price.

I need a couple too, I have the new bracket but not enough of the chassis mount left to bolt to, the old bolt is there but if I try to undo it the cornflakes will crumble. I was going to fabricate one (I have a bender) and bolt one on with PEMs can then be changed if needs be.

damn it. put on all dimensions, tidied drawing up, and it has completely disappeared. just gotta find it again and put it back on here

if i have done it right there should be some pictures to see the brackets in different stages, firstly both l/h and r/h in bare metal, then etch primed, then stone chipped. could not get welded onto car today coz of family problemsView attachment 1797001

Nice Job.
Fortunately 90% of the outriggers on mine were ok, just the end where the bracket was had rusted out. I made an ally plate and bolted it to the outrigger, all is nice and tight now and hopefully the rattling bumper is in the past. Made it easier to adjust too

i could not fold the steel no matter how i tried, so i took them to a mate with a folder. he took all of the dimensions, and is now in the process of pricing up, laser cutting the flat steel , then pricing the folding if anyone is interested.

Is this still a project? I am looking at replacing mine, the ally plate I bolted on was just a temp fix really
