S-Type Part number - front brace(s)

Postby steve.pritchard146 » Fri Mar 25, 2022 2:25 pm

Hi all,
I'm trying to track down what part I need to buy to replace the braces that are at the front of the car between each chassis rail and front cross member.
On page 373 plate 76 in the S-Type book of parts I've ordered and received parts 4 (cross member) 5 (cross member closing plate) 6 (LH & RH outer braces)
Looking in the parts book it may be I'm looking for something related to the LH and TH valance(s) but I'm not sure. I've taken a picture which shows the swiss cheese view of the o/s front looking up you can see what's left of the cross member, outer brace and the bit I'm looking for.

tbc it looks straight forward to fabricate - but if I can save time and effort....

All advice gratefully received

Steve

Hello Steve,

that is slightly fifferent to the Mk 2 I'm used to but I think it is the radiator support bracket you need, these are handed (On the Mk 2 anyway?)

I get my panels from Martin Robey and there are diagrams on that website of the panels and layout of them.
