rotisserie help

[rickjen]

I have a friend who is going to build me a rotisserie for my FC Wagon, he has asked me where the best place to secure it to the car at the front and rear that would give me the best balance and stability, without covering up to much of the area that I would want to work on.
Instead of reinventing the wheel, can the experts on the forum please help.
A measurement from the centre pivot and the secure point would be a bonus, if someone has it
Thanks in advance
Regards

The mounting points depends on if you are keeping the front subframe on. If so you can mount to the bumper mounts if not mount to the bonnet hinge mounts.

I've got some rotisserie info on page 3 of my build thread:
Crumpsnr FC Standard Sedan

Hope the link works.

Otherwise look on page 2 of the builds in progress topic and look for Crump Snr Standard Sedan.

Hope your build goes quicker than mine!

hi Martyn
Another good idea, thanks for your input.
As far as the speed of my build is concerned it is based on the availability of spare cash ( I am retired ) at the time, family commitments, house and maintenance duties, the mates at the pub, sport "watching" etc. therefore I have made mates with the snails in my shed their keeping up with me 
Taking my time and loving every minute of it, when I can I am down the shed from morning to dusk and I feel like I am in heaven, radio blasting hands dirty and as a bonus WIFE VERY SUPPORTIVE
" I think I will head down there now"

Good luck Rick. I'm not retired but in the same boat, not in any rush. I'm prepared to take some time to learn how to do a lot of the work myself.  I kept my eyes on gumtree and Facebook and eventually found a rotisserie for cheaper than I could make one.  So far though,  the best thing I've done is join this forum, so much knowledge and good people.
