MIKE550/4:
I need a tab made for my missing one on the  frame.

I do not have correct tools or skills to make this this.

Plan is to rivet it.... small plate will sit underneath and tab will come up through the holes.

If anyone could do this please get in touch

Pic to show..... I will provide measurements needed

thanks if you can help

MIKE550/4:
Will of course pay for material , postage etc

MikeM:
I now have this made from another forum got a question though if anyone can answer.

Plan was to rivet it in using 2 holes in the frame , but this may cause a fulcrum.

So could I drill 2 holes in the frame and use this, how much pressure will be on this tab ?

 


ps I know easier to weld but hindsight is a great thing

LesterPiglet:
Is that the tab for locating the tank mounting rubber? If so it's only a locator really. The front of the seat will hold the tank in place.

MikeM:
if u go back to the first pic you can see a tab missing, hindsight I should of noticed and repaired.... but I missed it .... stuff happens

did not want to weld as it would ruin the powdercoat , had a word with oddjob and we came up with this...... was going to rivet using the 2 holes but not sure if it would hold, this method drilling 2 holes a bit away from the upright looks better

don't think an real weight on these tabs and thought it would be a good permanent fix
