[Minnetonka4me]

Yeah FP is out and wont make any more...

 

[glsmohio]

Well I did pic up another x4 umi that was missing a part and it took me a little time but I was able to mill it up. Just need to drill some holes...

Going to be out of town for the weekend so I won't be able to work on the ski till monday.

I got you covered matt, i plan to make like 10 of them , use the water jet to cut them out.

Yah that's my plan on Sunday. Have the exhaust mocked up on a turd 787 so I don't care if my welding messes up the engine paint.

Ive got a xp hidden in my garage somewhere with a spec 2, i need to check and see if that bracket is there. I might need one.

The bolt on mine is seized scared I'll snap it off I tried the 9ther day it won't budge

 

[Ankeneyou]

Can someone post some decent pics of a real FP bracket?

 

[fitty650sx]

I could probably take mine off and trace it if anyone wants it? [MENTION=41828]Minnetonka4me[/MENTION] ... hint hint. I could probably draw it up in CAD too....

 

[Minnetonka4me]

I will take 5 of them. So sick of trying to find some. Ill post pix in a bit if someone doesnt beat me to it.

 

[glsmohio]

post it up and ill see what i can do to have the water jet cut them then ill weld them up and could have them powder coated...

 

[AdamXP800]

I'll send you my bracket to copy exactly if needed.
