tree cables
rollazuki:
An interesting and pertinent point I thought of was:
If a car with open suspension is presented for SVA, and the diameters of bolts and fasteners etc are not of the correct radius, then it fails. However if you put a temporary bumper in front of them of the correct radius, then they are exempt. IE in my case, twas a lotus 7 replica with a dummy bumper in front of the nose cone.(basically a bull bar for a lotus?)
So I wonder, if the wires are behind a C&U OK bumper, are they still an inspectable item?
???

Not because of the wires, but if you put a bumper infront of them.
redneck:
I've been giving some thought on tree cables as I would like to fit some to my Pajero for laning, the way I intend to do it is by having eye bolts or eye plates on the roof and also on top of the wing tops or bullbar, having the cable attached with a small shackle to these with a turnbuckle to put a bit of tension in them, I also intend to have the cables sheathed in rubber or plastic tubing. I reckon that's about as safe as they can be made :? as they can be taken off when not doing overgrown lanes or when on asphalt.
