Ribcraft 4.8 - Screen and Wingbacks

Hi,

Im looking for a suitable screen for the standard single console on my Ribcraft 4.8.

Does anyone know if the FS Console screen can be adapted to fit, I think it is a bit wider?

Also, does anyone know how the wingbacks seat backrest side supports attach?


Many thanks

Gareth

I think you need the standard console screen, which you can get as an accessory and is easy to fit.

I'm not aware you can add wings later. They are generally welded on when the seat is made. You could remove the cushion, and ask Ribcraft if they can weld some wings on.

Hi Gareth,

Russ mentioned you had a new toy!!

Give Dorian at Ribcraft a call.
Am sure they will be able to help.
Have to agree, not sure you can ad the "wings", Mine look like that are part of the seat back rest and not an add on. So would guess it needs a whole new seat back.

If you need a number for Dorian PM me or give me a call.

Cheers

Are you saying they were born like that?

Or did somebody weld them onto the frame at some point?
