Richards chassis fuel and brake pipe mounts

greenlanebasher · Apr 26, 2016

Hi all,
I've got a chassis on the way for my 110 from Richards but I am just wondering if anyone knows if they drill all the holes for the clips to hold the brake pipes and the fuel lines? Don't really want to drill the chassis to mount p clips if possible but I will need all the holes to be where they should be if I am to use the original style clips

there are some holes but i had to drill along the top chassis rail for brake and fuel pipe clips, theres no problem with drilling galv isnt like paint in that it needs to cover the whole surface to protect the steel

Ooh that's clever. I will just get some new clips and drill it then. Cheers

No holes on mine. I made my own clips out of 2mm ali plate, cut in to 15mm squares with a hole drilled in the middle. araldited the pipe clip in to the hole, sawed it flat on the back and araldited them to the chassis.
Couldn't bring myself to drill holes in the chassis.

I copied Al2O3 - it worked very well!

Tremendous, I'm pleased they worked for you

These are some I've made to keep things tidy up against the bulkhead. I've painted these to match the body colour. The ones on the chassis I just left aluminium so they blended in there.
