The minimum cut is 5 sets of straps due to the costs , if those interested can get 3 others then price will be as per before 120£ for a set of three straps , if not then it will have to be more £ to cover the costs of producing them , the guy producing them orders the metal from
somewhere else and each time an order is made they charge for setting up the cutting machine , so to balance out machining costs 5 sets is much better

Hi yes if you can generate enough interest , it’s much cheaper per
person to do five of them , they are just strips of stainless steel pre drilled but they will last , if you want to get people together i will speak to him again

i don’t do facebook , if you do put something on there and there was earlier interest on here maybe more will come forward , if people drive a monaro with a big boot the straps will eventually go , worth watching this space , i can get some done but it will cost a bit more as i don’t want to be out of pocket , see what interest this kicks up over the next two weeks then take it from there

Andy i’ve pm’d the two above you who had interest in them see what they say , if i can split the costs between three of you i don’t mind doing that but i don’t really want to be out of pocket and two straps sitting in my garage

Here is a nice shot of my diff cover, and lurking in the background are two tank straps. I'd imagine anyone who's not had them replaced already will see the same rust fest.
Seeing any awful lot of bare, dry, rusty metal there. Where is all your wax / underbody protection?

Hi will only make the straps up in sets of five , as it brings the over all cost down , if i have three interested i will order them up but it will cost a bit more per person , or i end up with straps i don’t need and may sell off in the long run

Windy miller as i can not email you , and any one else on here can you please say if you want some tank straps , 5 is ideal if i get at least three i will call him , the guy has templates but will not keep them for ever , tank straps will rot out and they are often worse than what you think they are ,
cheers
