Getting the front beam back in
t_tuffnut - February 14th, 2010 at 03:26 PM

Any tips?

I have had two mates lift it in, but we can't get it in far enough to get the two top mounting bolts in place. I've tried belting it back in with a mallet, but nothing.

In doing so, I've manager to scratch away a heap of the paint I put on it.

So, does anyone have an easy way of doing it?

Cheers,

Paul

Lift and tilt !

Tilt the top rearward to get the upper body mounting bolts in location firs then roll rearward to fit the contours of the pan....easy:)

Thanks Matt, Worked a treat.

I put the rubber spacers underneath the body mount originally, which was giving me all sorts of trouble.

Put them on top, got it all sorted now.

Thanks.
