    Ideal placement of hooks and brackets for BFUK/MF harness??

    Getting ready to mount the hooks and lower brackets on my MOW jetpack for the new (and improved -- great job guys!!) v2 harness from Bobby and Gav. Has anyone figured out the ideal placement for these on the back of the pack to make it hang right (e.g. farther down than ROTJ) for ESB? The upper hooks are not so much the problem as figuring out exactly where I want these bottom brackets to sit.

    I assume they sit to the outside of the main frame on the hanging "bar" when mounted on the harness, right?

    Anyone have pics of their setup?

    Thanks!
    Chris

    Thanks for the comments Chris. They should work sat right on the bottom edge of the pack, each side of the recess.

    Rob,

    Christian's doesn't have the same recess as yours, but I imagine this would work?

    Thats what I went by...also place the bottom brackets and then hook the rig up to it and place the hooks to the rings and see where they should go I dont believe that robs rig is adjustable though which is why i say do it my way that way its not to loose when connected and it wont bounce around and fall off the bottom bracket

    It's not really adjustable if fully finished, but I requested mine without the rings mounted on the straps. That gives me a little more room to tweak before riveting them on.
