That is how I have mine.CheersColinmy car is nearly complete empty.. got a suspension rebuild , new leaf-spring at the back and sits a little high now ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT6 M Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Im not a lover of straps an the like, make the sytem too wobbeleee, and is then prone to assorted noks /bangs / clonks , in the car.so Ive had it like this for yonks, seems to work fine.diff attachmentsback box hangersM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Hmmm, I like yours M., but I do like straps 'cos then there's some fore-and aft for banging the boxes into things and having them stay on. Also not smashing the diff carrier, maybe. I don't ever like disagreeing with you though matey! ;D Wim's is set-up so that the rear boxes hitting something hard will pull them right off the hangers though - not sure mine are that way around (I'll have to look again). They're a good height! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll probably find Marcus's engine is suitably secured and this is not a problem for him. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
