    Rear Body Supports Now Available as Option with Wing Mount!

    Need some extra support for the rear of your 818 body with integrated locations for mounting hood pins or latches? These supports are designed to index off of the APR Wing Mount system that I also offer:

    http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showt...stem-Available!

    I will offer these as Rear Body Support Brackets (pair) that are fully adjustable and support the rear of the body as well as provide a rock-solid platform for your hood pins or latches to mount to:






    And also Forward Body Support Bracket (pair) that are also fully adjustable and are multi-purpose. They support the body under the lip of the "rear fender" and also provide a platform to mount a hood pin or hood latch for both the rear edge of the engine cover as well as the front edge of the rear cover:







    The Rear Body Supports would be $39 per pair and the Forward Body Supports would be $47 per pair.....or $70 for all 4 when purchased together with the Wing Mount system. The steel tabs are 1/8" thick and would require welding to the Wing Mount subframe. The support arms are 1/8" Aluminum. Mounting hardware (nuts/bolts/washers) are included. You can email me thru my website if you wish to place an order. Thanks!

    The Forward Body Support has a small lip that fits up into the channel on the underside of the body to support it and keep it from flexing outward.

    This is a real nice addition with little weight gain, as the rear supports will offer a solid mount for the pin/latch (and not have to use the fiberglass tab that FFR provided), also with the addition of the front supports you can eliminate the hinge and add 2 additional pins/latches and have a tottaly removeable rear deck lid, this is real nice if you have the wing. These are quality parts with plenty of adjustments. Nice job Shane !

    Any chance on getting a hinge for the engine cover that would attach to the wing frame support tabs that are welded on to the shock tower brace ?
