Hi All. I need some dimensions please,

Its for front upper plates and lower cups for airbags on my 63 c10.

I have just tried to order this product $69.99 and a whopping $155.00 postage to the UK, So i will make my own,

The price of the product is ok but im not willing to pay all thet postage,

Re: Dimensions please

In the past, I have disassembled the front end and used a piece of poster board to trace the outline of the cross-member and then transferred the shape to the flat plate.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
