WS 19 in a Mk2 carrier

[RichardT10829]

Hi folks, does anyone have any info on what tray is used etc for the ws19 when fitted to a mk2 carrier ?

I know the seat folds down and some sort of bracket is fitted which hinges over from the track guard (that hinge is still in place on my carrier).

does it use the same sort of tray setup as the mk1 carriers ?

I've fitted mine as in this picture. Therfore I think you need the No22 carrier with the PSU on top of the set. The No 21 has the PSU along side the set.

So far my set is just dummied in on a wooden board, so I need the carrier too. Ron

PS no idea why the pictures have come as links?

Ron, I produce the rack that bolts to the track guard, I have a run of them on the go for people with Mk1* carriers, I wonder if they are also used in our Mk2’s though.

If they are, I will make an extra for myself

The information I've seen points to the shorter instalation across the front of the carrier behind the bulkhead, in which case it would be a No22 carrier? Or did MK2's sometimes fit the longer instalation on the track guard?

I guess the No22 is the same as No21 but with the bit where the PSU sits, deleted? The PSU then sits on its side in two angle brackets and clamp down webbing.

The common carriers for 19 set.

Right, it’s the bracket this carrier sits on that I am querying, on the mk1* Carrier it bolts to the track guard then the water carrier sits on that.

If that makes any sense ?

The C31UCW No.2 MK-II*, Canadian Ford welded hull MK-III, and assorted Marks of the two Windsor carrier models share examples of the Ford Canada factory development for installation of Wireless No. 19 Sets, chore horse, and portable (wireless) battery box stowage.

IIRC Doug Lavoie has a set of the mounting brackets?

Note: the last two images are Windsor carrier. You can identify that from a number of visual observations, the most noticeable being the channels running along the interior of the right hand upper protection plate. Compare that with the break-out bag stowage strap of the C31UCW No.2 Mark II*.

Those are nice helpfull pictures Ross. The first picture (like mine. No22 carrier) Just has a simple flat plate at each end which I assume are bolted down somehow.

Interestingly, two of the pictures show the junction box that Kevin has.....Maybe I should get one? Ron
