That size of hex head looks perfect. I don't know if you noticed but the hex heads in the link I sent you are high heads.

Yes I've seen that. So I'm waiting till Fa. Knupfer tell me if they can make the smal haeds with 6mm or not.
If not than I'll take yours with the high haed.

The last fiew days I did some woek cross the building instruction.
The front axel will be install easy, but the body is a bit tricky. So it needs some complains with flex
I put the frame with the rivet, before install the side body parts. I did'nt need loctite.

Are you going to round off the front axle pivot frame? I have thought about it. Regards Phil.

Hi Phil,
I also thought about it. I will leave it like this.
1. You hardly see it
2. It's alu and if it gets less stuff, it could break under the strain.
Regards
Florian

I did some more body work jeseterday, an paint the alu ground to finish the frame. Picthures come later.
Bevor I build the load area from the FAMO. The side wals I fixed also with the rivet. It ab litle tricky because the loading floor. On front of the side wals aro no more rivet in spce the side flap. In this space I braze it, so its a good connection to the floor I think.

This weekend I saved the metal against rust. With paint it looks even better...
