What are these? And can I cut them off?

No, it's not a question my wife asked me....

These brackets were bolted to the subframe but I'm switching to a new subframe and don't see what they are for. They aren't on my other buggy

Not standard, well not on later frames, I suspect they may have been something to hold the outer sheath's of the handbrake cables tight, but that's a guess

Off they come then! They make splitting subframe and chassis on your own a pain in the arse

Cheers Alan! Hope you are well mate :)

Yep, I'm good Dave, hope you are as well, you do realise it's only 6 weeks to Stoneleigh, best get a move on & get the new subframe fitted

6 weeks eh? I should be able to manage that. Hoping to have it back on the road in 2 or 3. Although it's an old engine which is yet untested so we'll have to see how it runs
