Re: R6 shock conversion
Got some pictures of the solution my father and I came up with if they are any help, I assume the solution is similar to everyone else's:

Re: R6 shock conversion
Sorry gavd, i didn't see your PM or i would have let you know that i don't have any brackets made up at the moment.
I have been really busy lately with my new business, and judging by the diary constantly being booked up for about 2-3 weeks in advance, hopefully i will stay busy for a while.
However, i am going to make some brackets up this weekend. If i wait until i have some free time it will probably be Christmas before they are ready so i will make time and get them out of the way .
Sorry to anyone i've kept waiting, it wasn't done on purpose, just how things are playing out at the moment.
