Hi All,

Has anyone got any ideas where I might find some new blukhead brackets for the tithonus cage? Mine are more dust than metal now but they should look like this:

Any guidance is much appreciated!

Your best bet will be Nick at PA Blanchard.

Or contact Safety Devices whom I think were the manufacturers.

@Disco-Skipper , have you spoken with Safety Devices yet as they were the manufacture.

Click here, scroll down to gallery and view the LR with this type of mounting http://www.safetydevices.com/military/

Blanchard can only sell them as part of the complete roll bar kit which isn't ideal for what I'm after as the rest of the cage is fine, totally understandable that they don't want to sell component parts of an assembly though

I'm waiting to hear back from safety devices currently so we'll have to see if they've got any kicking around at the back of a store room somewhere

Failing either of these options I'll have to see if it'll be doable to come up with a home brew alternative

Safety Devices (search them on here& FB) will be very expensive.
Any good fab shop could copy them for you if you could blag a set to copy - probably a big ask.

The ones I've got should be good enough to act as a base / template - its only the cylinder through which the bolts goes thats absolutely toast
