    Has anyone built a tilt frontend for your trifive or seen one fabricated?

    I know that kits can be purchased for the fibergl*** one-piece front but I intend to use an all metal and not sure if these are heavy enough.

    Really need some pictures or diagrams for the best/least complicated set up. Mostly need attaching points, brackets, stops, etc.

    Any help and ideas would be appreciated. Will have no front bumper to deal with but plan to include grill/bumper pan with one-piece tilt.

    Thanks.

    We done this on a five-7 way back in Vo-Tech. This was in 1976-77. I remember it was heavy and clumsy. it took two people,( one on each side) to pull the bottom of the fender out and lift it over the cowl. we made a simple hinge, something like a barn door.
