Check strap brackets


Recommended Posts

Hi, any one know where I could get the A pillar check strap brackets, both of mine are broken and look a bit awkward to make. Looked in Moss and Rimmers but all they seem to sell is the complete A piliar.

It`s a 3a but I think the same bracket was used on many cars.

Thanks.

Better mention which car its for.

If you are talking about the check strap that bolts to the inside of the front edge of the door, Moss are OOS but I suspect that TR Shop would have them.  Just be aware that the repro items are shorter than the originals which restricts the door opening. (Or they were when I needed them).

No, not the straps themselves, but the attachment on the pillar. Its a little folded bracket that fits in from the back of the pillar. Want to do mine whilst the wings are off.

Hi Roger, it looks as though I might have to make them. Even in the original parts book it only lists them as an assembly with the A pillar. A bit of a tricky folding exercise though. I might make them out of solid on the Bridgeport and bolt them in from the back.
