pick up canvas back rope hooks

Post by horrace »

I'm just having the canvas back fitted to horrace... and need a bit of info and guidance on where and what to put the rope fixing hooks. Anyone with some pics out there please?
Also I can only find self colour (to be painted ) hooks from ESM anyone know of some stainless jobs?

If you don't get some answers beforehand I can probably get you a picture but not for a day or two. You will have to make the hooks if you want stainless, or buy from ESM and get them plated. They were painted initially.

Ties not fitted to base models.
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!

I think what you are looking for is on page 5 of the ESM site in the 'pick up' section. They will need to fit halfway between the eyes on the tilt canvas. The simple hooks are not quite as I remember them, but my memory is not so good over small detail from over 40 years or so!

thanks for the help guys, interestingly I followed a pick up with tilt today from Mayfield east sussex to cross in hand but then unfortunately had to turn off as I was going to wait till he pulled over and then I could of had a look and a chat. It was a green one .
