I’ve cut up some 3mm plate to fit between the seat framing and the lower pipes so that both items are locked solid together, I’ve cut ( and yet to finish ) a half circle shape in the 3mm plate so that later when I make the body panel if I choose to put some scoops or vents in the body panel I can still direct air to the radiator.
I also made up a 3mm top plate for joining the seat framing to the back bone and there is also a 2mm plate for the under side
Pictured here is the upper rear shockie mounts that I’ve made up out of a mixture of 3mm box tubing and 4mm plate, currently tacked in place ready for Charlie to TIG weld.
Here’s a shot from behind which gives a general indication of the angle that my rear shockies are mounted on. Oh and I’ve also sat some old 245/50/15 tyres in place just for looks ( coz I can) and at this stage I’m planning on probably getting 265 or 275/50/15 tyres for it when I get to that stage.
And here is a rear view of the rear shockie mounts for no reason other than it was a spare picture I had on the camera that I thought I may as well add hehe.
