ahebron Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I am going through the trials and tribulations of fitting the bonnet to Vitesse 6.I have all the parts and going from photos and manuals etc I think I am assembling it correctly.But I cannot get my bonnet springs taut in any position of the bonnet.I have hooked them into the welded loops at the bottom of the bonnet tubular frame and the slots in the bonnet stay.I have the bonnet stays as per the diagram in the Canleys and Rimmers CataloguesAny ideas on what I am doing wrong.ThanksAdrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt306 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 They only get taught when dropping the bonnet so as they stop it slamming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 yes they hold the rear end up just a few inches above the baulkhead , the rest of the time they are slack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
