Good point - thanks. I wonder if anyone out there has had an issue with fitment using pre-made plates from aftermarket suppliers. Also, are the holes in the Jaguar factory bottom plates oversized to allow for alignment adjustments?
I sent a drawing to my machinist for a quote using 1/4" mild steel, 1/4" stainless and 1/2" aluminum. My intention is to use it as a floor jack location, so should these thicknesses provide a reasonable safety margin?
