BEAM END COVERS<br />

Beam end covers are used at the rear of the sills to cover the mountings for<br />

the rearward facing wishbones. These covers are non structural.<br />

Beam End Covers Assembly<br />

Drill two clearance holes Ø7mm through the two ends of the rebated face of<br />

the beam end covers. Place the covers onto the ends of the sills and mark<br />

the position of the holes previously drilled. Drill out these marks with a<br />

tapping side drill for the self tapping screw. Attach the covers with two self<br />

tapping screws.<br />

BONNET AND FRONT SPLITTER MOULD<br />

The bonnet of the <strong>Libra</strong> pivots forward to allow access to the radiator fan,<br />

battery and spare wheel. When it is shut it is fixed in position by five<br />

fasteners. These fasteners hold the bonnet rigidly to the tub and prevent any<br />

movement. A front splitter mould is fitted to the front edge of the bonnet in<br />

front of the radiator.<br />

Bonnet and front splitter mould assembly<br />

This assembly should be undertaken with the radiator ducting T0107 attached<br />

to monocoque T0100.<br />

Drill two pilot holes from the inside of the radiator ducting T0107 in the<br />

positions shown in the bottom front corners of the ducting. From the outside<br />

of the radiator ducting now open these holes up with a hole saw to<br />

approximately 20mm. Use pivot holder T0609 as a template and work from<br />

the outside of the moulding. Drill two Ø6mm holes through the pivot holder<br />

into the moulding with the boss of the pivot holder through the previously<br />

drilled Ø20mm clearance hole. The pivot holder should be positioned with the<br />

base of the triangle parallel to the base of the radiator ducting and the<br />

hypotenuse facing the driver or passenger. Now open these four holes up to<br />

approximately Ø15mm with a hole saw.<br />

Working from the outside of the radiator ducting push two 6mm Nyloc nuts<br />

and washers through the retaining plate T0608 and attach pivot holder T0609.<br />

This assembly should now give a certain amount of adjustment up and down,<br />

forwards and backwards and can be nipped up prior to fitting the bonnet.<br />

Attach the three Spiro clip plates T0602 to the monocoque using 15mm long,<br />

No 8 self tapping screws. At this stage do not insert any packing washers<br />

between the Spiro clip plate and monocoque. Consult drawings No 19&21<br />
