It's a thought, but I just use the space and bolt method.

I've measured the holes in the ladder and they are 8mm. I don't know what
that translates to in rivnut sizes. If you could send me 4 (plus one for
luck? I mangled a couple last time) that would be great. If you send me
your address I will send you the cost of postage plus a "charitable
donation" - would that be OK?

My address is [email protected] - reply addy is spoofed.

Many thanks

Rich

You could sponsor him and Lizzie in the Mac4x4. The first time a 101
has competed I believe, so prolly the first time a 101 has won?

If any regular on this group needs a shot of a rivnut tool then drop me
a line, beware postage costs would probably be about a fiver each way
in the uk, the kit isn't light. Selection of rivnuts with it, you pay
for any used @ Richard's prices or just replace them yourself. Does
from M3 to M8. If Richard decides to offer rental commercially then
this offer stops.

rear calipers are just as likely to seize, and less likely to get looked at.

Emmm! More like M6 (if metric) or the nut has zero wall thickness!

Half a dozen would be great, if you can spare them. Let me know as in above
post and I'll send the postage on. I'll mail you my address off-group.

Thanks.
