Hi Can someone tel me in what order the Bolts go in to fit my z cars front end to the space frame,
as I dont know where the large washer goes ?

Im using a GRP Body and GRP bulk head and floor witch are all in 1 piece
its strange as the large Bolt has a hex head and the anchor point on the space frame is round
one of the guys at z cars told me a while back but I cant remember.

Regards bendion58

Hi John do you have any photos of your Build at all, it will give me something to look at while at work
my problem is when Im going to offer up the Bulkhead, the anchor point that bolts to the front subframe
in what order did you bolt the all in 1 bulkhead and floor, did you use the tower Bolt washer ?

you have a Tower Bolt, and washer, and cap Bolt and washer
does the Tower Bolt head butt against the GRP Bulkhead, I just dont know were the Tower Bolt Washer comes in on a project like ours
if you cold do me a Drowing or some thing, that would be great.

Regards Ben.
