Thanks this is very useful, i have read about this somewhere but not in this detail.
Is there any reason why i cant 1. drill out the rivets that hold the escort fixing brackets to the runners (this would leave flat runners. 2. bolt a 2x2 steel tube to the bottom of the runners 3. bolt the 2x2 to the floor of the car? This is what we did on the saloon i built?
