Saddle brackets for L200 (Crown/TDC) canopy?

barrie2, Aug 16, 6:10am
My 1990 ute canopy (Crown / TDC) tailgatehas a 'T' bar that turns (& locks) the bar into each end. There are 2 brackets each end (for 8mm) bar. All cracked and letting bar slide open. Any ideas where to get new ones! Emailed Crown but got no reply). Thanks.

Make them yourself or go to an engineering shop they will be able to make them shouldnt cost much

Instead of emailing them, ring them.
Many companys have an email listed on their website, but never bother even looking at emails, let alone answering them.

it's a bit harder to ignore a phone call.

Its far too old for Crown to bother with, just get some copies made up. I needed the central lock pivot that the rods attach to for a canopy I have that was off a late 80's L200 that the previous owner had lost, and they couldn't help. It was a bit of mucking about but made another one from scratch.

Thanks - will have a go at making my own, otherwise the 'No 8 wire' guys here in vegas will sort me some out.
