Hi ,
some not all we do press some panel's using aluminum dies, only good for between 35<>50 panels, we can do panels up to 2400mm long by 1000mm wide depending on how complex. We do sill panels & flat corrugated panels as used on Citroen Acadiane , AK & HY vans Etc

I do have a set of wooden formers for T2, 4 door sills in one section, I suppose I could make some if there is enough interest

What sort of price for say ten pairs, Rick

terranosaurusdoug · 13-03-2017, 23:32

Or ten sets of front wings

Hi Rick,
I will look at the unit price tomorrow for 10pr . from a unit cost point of view if you can round up other member & get 20 pr it would be more cost effective the tooling material cost is obviously lower nearer to the tooling wear limit.
The sill's are correct profile but sans doorsteps, 13mm flange to top edge, if i remember correctly that was OK on the couple of trucks i did but it's a while ago now & I'm at the age of senior moments these days.
Do you think there is any requirement for any other repair sections / panels ??

regards Adrian

never thought somewhere I have drawings for compression rod mount repair pieces (proper cup in MS with a stepped rear flange to mount into frame Brkt hole) used them on mine about 4 yrs ago & still perfect even with orange polybushes

OK price it on 20, Rick

There will be a market for front wings of all models, used ones are starting to sell for silly money now and as far as I know even the grp ones are getting a little hard to find. If it is something that is feasible for you to do then I don't think you will have a problem shifting them.

I use gaffer tape it is so so cheap,

Rick

staffdog · 14-03-2017, 00:00

front wings I cannot do with my press / tooling, It's not possible to do the wing mounting flange with the full panel, I looked at this with the last T2 I had, did the body of panel & mounting flange separate & TIGed together ( n/s) but not really viable for a volume run.
Hasn't anyone looked at composite front wings that route seemed viable when I last had any thoughts regarding frt wings

terranosaurusdoug · 14-03-2017, 00:00

I'm in talks with 3M to make some in Nissan metallic green

terranosaurusdoug · 14-03-2017, 00:02

Yeh it is possible to get grp ones on the web.

staffdog · 14-03-2017, 00:09

your all too quick for me

Rick,
no problem I will cost them up tomorrow

With regard to front wings, I would appear my question re: composite was answered before my post.
We could do them in house if someone has some decent-ish wings to sample from ,I assume both wing types is what we are looking at or only T2 ( corner indicator ) ?

would it be possible / acceptable to start a new thread just for replacement part request / discussion ?

I think that would be totally upto you bud, nobody on here would want to hassle you to make parts, well maybe zippy656...and emjaybee...possibly banshee and steer clear of blocky, but you get what I mean
