Inner wing delete

Henry.adams · May 27, 2022

Currently building my discovery 2 trayback and i plan on removing the inner and outer wings and building it out of tube. I have relocated everything except the fuse box abs module and just can’t figure out what to do with them anyone got any ideas ?

Extend the looms, run them up the A post and mount them on roof. Keeps them well out of the way if you go wading and gives it that 'airliner' look....

Can’t tell if your joking or not mate lol but extended the looms does seem like the only option lot of work tho and I still wouldn’t know what to do with the abs module as there is metal lines running into it

Well, half serious.... Could you leave just enough inner wing to keep the ABS module mounted on, or maybe a bracket extended out from the bulkhead? Bit a long way though, it would need bracing from somewhere. Relocating the module itself to the bulkhead looks possible but would involve a lot of new pipework.

Yeah I really don’t fancy doing that pipe work lol shame the wings are so rotten or I would just leave them on

They both sit in their own mounting brackets which are spot welded to the inner wings. Demount the brackets and attach mounting points for them on your tube frame so they sit in roughly the same place.

That’s what I’m thinking for the abs module it’s going to look a little weird but will have to do I think
