What is a rear access maple support?

When you change the rear end oil you have to remove that piece of plywood in the center... it rests and is bolted to a piece of 15"x2"x1/2" ash on each side that is the support for the ply. I broke one of mine taking off the access panel. (did save the bolts/screws and little threaded pieces so i can reuse them.)
Cut a piece of maple this morning and will get it in tonight.

Glad you are enjoying the virtual rebuild... its certainly been a learning experience for someone not normally with a wrench in his hand.

Gordon;; Change the wrench to a WENCH and you might bite off more than you want to chew. Stick with the wrench.I enjoy your trip in our MG world. Keep this as a motto, USE-ENJOY-BUT PRESERVE. Do not change the sequence.
