Black Sheep Cross member

[Foxyred]

Wow ! Arrived today well packed and Bl***y heavy.

Opened it to find a made and strong cross member. When i spoke to Clive he said he's stopping making them
This is such a shame as it a fantastic item at a good price.

I brought one for my old chassis... never used it but still want to keep it incase I ever need it... plus it's a work of art

you're kidding right?

Mine arrived today as well. I don't think he's stopped making them. But he's lost his workshop & has to make them at home.

I have to say they are an awesome piece of kit.. and well worth the money.

do they come in parts or welded together? anyone put a pic up?

 

[Pikey]

Cross member comes as one extensions are flat pack and need welding together.

Not kidding he told me he was stopping making them after last week. I did not ask why such a shame if he stops production, but why would he lie.
Pikey what are the two drilled c shaped things for ?

Pikey what are the two drilled c shaped things for ?

4 sides 2 for each leg
2 tops
2 bottoms
2 strips for strengtheners
2 pieces of Box section to go between the sides where the lashing eyes or jate rings, bolt on. They're to prevent distortion thru overtightening.

 

[Pikey]

Is this pressbrake?

Yes

 

[Foxyred]

cheers, must be slightly different from yours, i do not have any strips and the box section is folded 6mm steel nice steel work.

That sir, is a damn shame, I sympathise with a decent chap for the knives etc, and I'm sorry to hear about your health.

Tho I was thrilled when you secured new premises, one must do what is best for ones self.

what price are they? they look very sturdy! 300tdi with extensions?

 

[lynall]

Forget the price just buy one they really are very very good.
Unlike all the others out there you will never have to replace it ever again.
