Yavin Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 I am assenblling a FX kit and I am trying to decide how the ab plate and back plate are suppost to align. Are they suppost to be even at the top or is the top of the butt plate suppost to match up with the bottom of the ab plate. If I match top to top the belt will be way too low. If I match the bottoms then the top of ab plate sits about 2" higher then the back. Is there a "right" way or just what looks best.

firebladejedi[TK] Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 With the fx armour due to the size of the various parts the upper back armour will overlap the kidney plate, this is normal. If you like you can trim the kidney plate down so that it will sit more like the original anh armour, thats up to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After laying the armor out I noticed that the cod area didn't have as much of an upward cut, it just went straight across. If I trim it down it should be just about right. Thanks a bunch.

darren1970[501st] Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Sorry to hijack this thread Dan, but am I right in thinking that the kidney plate can be cut right down so that it sits against the back plate ( I know I should know this allready )?
