Tiger 1 New Hinges for Front and Rear Mudguards

Post by Mike Stannard (toyrific) »

Hi Guys

When trying to find suitable hinges for the Tiger 1 stowage bins without success I decided to make my own. At the time I produced the Tiger 1 mudguards I used off the shelf hinges for them that I was not really happy with. When designing the hinges for the bin I decided to make more accurate ones for the mudguards, what follows here are the results. All recent orders for the mudguards have these hinges fitted. If you would like to upgrade your mudguards I am offering the hinges as separate items. These are very easy to fit, just remove the old ones and replace with the new. The new hinges do have to be shaped around the pins once they are fitted to the mudguards. Very simple and full instructions will come with the hinge sets. No drilling is required as they match the existing holes in the mudguards.

New Hinges for TT23, TT24 and TT25. Tiger 1 Front and Rear Mudguards. Designed from the real hinges.

I added this picture with a comparision to the real mudguards showing correct underside detail with correct number of rivets, nuts and bolts. The rear mudguards have the same correct detail.

The hinges are only available to those that have purchased my mudguards with the old style hinges.

Depending on the demand I may have to have more made as I have limited stock on hand. It could take three to four weeks before they can be delivered.

Regards
