Thanks again Michael. It follows then that mine and Israel's MK2's would never have had them fitted. Ron

Israel, there is a cut out piece on the left side to allow for the left side bell crank. There are two strips welled to the bottom that are tapped so that the bolts coming up through the floor can screw into. (5/16" (8mm) thick and cross ways) There is also a fibre block that two spare spark plugs screw into.

Lynn Thanks for your Note. (I saw it after bending over the bins) This goes into the space of the rod by pressing the brake, but for more confidence during the week I will fix it and create a cut according to the photo you posted on MLU
Thanks , Israel

Default As of today what we did on our Bren
In addition we worked on the fuel tanks to weld some holes that are still in the tanks before installation.
