Simple shs sides and angle centers for the panel to sit in.
Found these simple tailgate hinges, and set it up that when the panel is down or up the panel is secure between the shs, nut when the struts are removed and panel at 90degrees it can be slid out to place elsewhere.
Gas struts are 90nM kitchen ones, $16 a pair I think..
Good little project..
Looks really good Westy!

Smart like tractor
Gave it a wash, then sat and looked at it. I have a meeting with an engineer on friday to discuss engineering the long arms, new shock towers, and an antirock sway bar, if I can get these approved it will take the ute to a whole other level in offroad capability and on road handling. I'm trying not to get excited

Fitted additional rubbers (conveyor belting) above the lower chassis to make up for 25 odd years of wear and compression. No more steel contact and no more noises on slow sharp turns. Seems to work very well. They don't make rubbers like they used too!
