MG Midget and Sprite Technical - wing front mounting point

Can anyone help with the dimensions of the mounting bracket on the front wing the one that bolts through the side of the footwell


mark heyworth

Wing was fitted to a Mk 2 midget. The bracket is welded to the wing lip it has a 5mm crank to the outside of the wing and stands 32mm from the top of the lip. It is bent at a right angle for 23mm. There is a 5mm dia hole in the centre of this. It is 32mm wide. If this is any use.

Hello, I presume it has a captive nut behind it (facing the wing) to accept the securing screw?
Philip Sellen

Yes I can feel a captive nut. The wings are stored in the roof of the shed I can't get at them unless I spend half a day getting everything down. I just tried a twist drill in the hole to get the size.
