Rapture Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Im missing one of these clamps that holds the skid armor to the frame. Cant seem to find them online anywhere. Anyone one know where i can get some, or know a substitute clamp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYUK Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 a U bolt from the hardware store will wor, drill another hole so you can clamp it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheesfast Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 An electrical conduit strap will work for that also. 3/4" should bolt right up. You can get them that use one bolt like you have or two bolts on either side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Try some of the sand rail or pre runner fab shops for something similar. Maybe look in to using half of one of the custom brake line clamps? Otherwise, the above fellas are correct with U bolts or conduit clamps.

Rapture Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I actually have a spare set of Alba brake line clamps which i tried already using half of one. It wasn't far off but i think they are just to thin and would snap with vibration. Gunna give these conduit strap a ago. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Well, that is pretty handy. Not if you are the kid whose bike seat got robbed, but at least it went to good use. Nice work sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
