[steve1961]

be very very careful with the iorn man template ... one guiy got it wrong the other week and had to cut his flare

[ARands]

Pilot holes @ 4mm

[ARands]

Oh you know it you filthy bitch

[ARands]

Take that you slut!

[ARands]

I can't say I am entirely impressed with the ironman template, seems a little " out"

[steve1961]

looks like yours has eaten into the flare area too ... that sux if so thats 2 ive seen

[ARands]

What you can see here is in fact the template DOES NOT fit the snorkel!!!!

[steve1961]

yes a very very unhappy camper you will be

[Tony]

Not just ironman, I have seen safari come close too, Lucky I checked mine first so have a nice neat gap and runs true with the top edge.

Be fine, just take your time and trim the flare (If needed) nice and even. Wont have any bad effect at all otherwise.

[steve1961]

someone else did it in the last few weeks too with an iorn man as well ... when i done mine i piloted with a 3 mm drill and didnt mask until i was happy with the placement of the holes ( just incase )

[snowman]

wonder how those beers in the background are going down now........

[steve1961]

wonder how those beers in the background are going down now........

i would say ... drowning sorrows

[ARands]

Front quarter with corrected holes drilled.

I'm not happy with ironman, and this seriously affects whether I'll buy their products again

[ARands]

I'm finished for the night, and now going to get another beer

[Tony]

Look on the bright side, The truck is now lighter with all that metal removed. Wont see a thing once fitted

[QueenslandeR]

its all good mate, the snorkel will cover everything... this puts me off ironman even more

[ARands]

aye, thats the saving grace of it.

I might make an abusive phone call in the morning! but I should really wait until the damn thing is installed!

It has really put me off Ironman, as I was looking at shocks, front and rear bars and a winch.

[llpatrick]

oh no, not good..

I was thinking to go Ironman Snorkel in Late Jan, its cheaper than the RalliArt ones and have a complete fitting instructions.

How much are the correct positions off the template ones? is the Big hole wrong too from Template?

[fridgie]

Yep, same happens with all brands I assume, my safari template was ever so slightly out and made the fitment very close to not happening, but got there

Thankfully I had someone with me who had done it before

[Joe]

Having installed both mine (Ironman) and fridgie's (Safari), I can tell you that both templates are identical and much care is needed to make sure it is in the correct place before drilling.

Having installed both mine (Ironman) and fridgie's (Safari), I can tell you that both templates are identical and much BEER is needed to make sure it is in the correct place before drilling.

I agree Joe, that's how I would have done it too ....or most of it...well 90% of it...

No probs ARands just a little paint on the holes and no one will know...except us
