Hi all,
does anybody out here have a top view of this new hinge ? I'm looking for the part directly in contact with the hatch. I have the concord book but nothing close enough to try to scratchbuild it.
TIA

DAMN Olivier, I have the page from the parts manul that show a complete break down of what you need, but I don't have it here with me. I'll try and get the disk from the Automotive guys and send it to you or post it here for you.
I'm doing the same thing to a Bradly I am working on know.

That's what I call valuable info
A few questions though :
On the second picture, there is a sub-assembly numbered 54 that doesn't seem to appear on any real picture I saw.
Are there only 2 spacers for the vision blocks top protection ? I count 5 holes in this part.
I'm really surprised by the total number of parts in just one hatch !
Thank you very much again Epi.

The parts manual for the HULL alone is in two volumes and both have 1000+ pages each. So you can imagine how complex each assembl y really is.
As far as Item #54, I haven't seen it on any vehicles either, so your safe in leaving it off.
There are 5 spacers, they just omitt the other so it wouldn't crowd the diagram.
Glad i could help!

I can imagine this is how Tamiya's assembly manual would look like if they made a 1:1 of the bradley. :-)
all thats missing from this one if the Tamiya colour conversions.
