se7enmad Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Hi! Was going through FIA regs this morning... Can anyone suggest how and where towing eyes are placed? Does this require welding to the chassis or may it be bolted on? Reference to a photograph would be helpful if possible Thanks Antonella ... my site here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Antonella - you should already have them already welded to the botom of the chassis front and back look for a loop of metal welded in place rob Edited by - robmar on 6 Nov 2002 11:10:28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Sewell Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 I do not know about new cars, but in 1995 the rear towing eye was an optional extra for road going cars - probably included automatically if you requested a racing car.

EFA Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 All Caterham Sevens have the towing eyes on the front right and rear left underside of the chassis.

ECR Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 My 1990 De Dion chassis has only the front towing eye. The two eye option must be post 1990 only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
