Thanks!

The sight that you do not recognise is currently being fitted to the 2A4M CAN fleet which is why you could not find any/much reference. The 'tripod', as you call it, is part of the engine deck lifting device. The aerial mounts supplied by Legend are too small in diameter. Granted their casting is better than Leopard Workshop. As far as I'm concerned, Legend produce the best castings in the world. My little Leopard Workshop cannot hope to compete.
This Legend set was also instigated by one of the two same Canadian experts that advised HobbyBoss with the original kit.

The update kit is great for the small things on the kit, but failed to include a corrected rear grill, and new tow points for adding the new implements like the mine roller/plough/dozer, which would made the set a great one, but the set really only updates the PERI sight. The resin is great, and the updated PERI sight is fantastic to update a Leo 2A4M. Just need the correct and updated reference material. The new PERI sight is covered with lots of walkaround photos in the Leo 2 reference DVD set available from Trackjam models.

The sight is also freely covered on my website: http://leopardclub.ca/Spotlight/Canada/2A4M-CAN/DH-1/

And here I was just thrilled that the update set was offered... now I'm left wondering how much work I have to do to get it right.

Maybe this will help you: http://leopardclub.ca/reviews/Legend/2A4M-CAN_update/

To complete the update set a new Leo 2A4M resin grill, that is correct will be out soon.

Cheers

That's great to hear about the replacement grill Anthony, it looks like a completely correct Canadian leo 2A4M will be possible now!
