Rear Panel M38A1 Holes

[Bob_C]

Hi All,

I got my rear panel welded in last week. Before I go ahead and paint it, I need to drill some holes. Essentially, all of the holes that are supposed to be in it - besides the light mounting ones. This repro I got doesnt have them in there. Dimensions of the holes + where they belong would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Bob,

Did you get any emails on this one?

If you still have the old panel you took off, you can make a paper tracing that will get you close to the correct places for the holes. Take your brackets that mount in the holes and check before drilling.

Hi Ryan,

No I did not. A guy in my local MVPA chapter has an A1, so I'm thinking I might go down to his place and get the locations of the holes.

I do not have the old one either. It would have been pretty useless as well, as it was dented up right where the jerry can and spare wheel go. Someone mustve backed into a wall years ago w/ it.
