Turbo Support bracket fabrication

Post by TonyB »

Hi Guys,

I am desperately in need of a turbo support bracket to be fabricated.

The standard bracket, that I have, is correct except the leg needs extending. Being cast I can not just have an extension welded on so I need a new bracket fabbing. This should not be too difficult and I can provide the current bracket with details of the change needed.

Do you know of anyone that can do this type of work? Please please please ask around for me as I need this before I can turn the boost up and finish the mapping.

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Tony

Hi Lloyd,

That would be greatly appreciated, and stainless is a bonus :D

I do not have a detail sheet, I would not know where to start with the angles and stuff. I would need to post the bracket to copy as a base.

I will take a pic in a bit and post it up for you to get an idea of what is involved.

In this first pic you can see the bolt holes that I need extending. The holes need to be 15-20mm further to the left.

A few more pics for a clear picture of the job needed.
