I don't need these to be mangled up or badly bent, but scraped and rusty is OK.

Junk Cobra bag rails (sides) |
Lead | ||
|
If any of you run across a set of damaged Cobra bag rails, then send me an alert. I'm gonna try and duplicate a set in my shop before I sell my T. I've
notified in writing to Cobra 3 times of my intentions to do so and have received no replies forbidding me to do this. According to law as I understand it, I
only have to make known to them my intentions on 3 separate occasions by written letter or email. By them not responding means that they have no objections by
law.
I don't need these to be mangled up or badly bent, but scraped and rusty is OK. Stan

I have been thinking about trying to fabricate a set of them myself . If you manage to find the parts to use for a pattern I would like to see how it goes for
you .

Stan....so glad to hear that you are thinking about re-popping the bag rails. Now what is it going to take to get you to think about the "unknown"
headlight bar?

Headlight bar will be a piece of cake compared to the bag rails. I may come up with my own design if used ones are not found by end of Oct. I only need to
purchase a small diam. tubing bender and add a gas pack to my mig welder to get started. Chroming will be done nearby in TN. I have to make up a mock set 1st
in order to get an estimate on chrome cost. I really need to have a mock set ready before I sell the T.

I could still use a set as long as they are not too badly bent. I only need them mainly for a pattern to start from. I just sent you a PM about this.

It will be a couple months yet before I get started on the project. I already have an alternate mounting plan in place and have purchased the hardware for
that, but the hydraulic tubing bender still needs to be bought. As soon as it starts to warm up a little I'll get on it. I just can't bear these chilly
70's out in the shop right now. LOL All kidding aside, it was 13F last week, and today it got 73F.

JC Whitney had some a few weeks ago. MC Enterprises. Definitely a 2 person job to install. Rubber hammer is a must.
