Re: A real BadSeed
UPDATE:
I had to do something about this step in the frame horns. My core support wouldn't sit flush with the frame and my sway bar mounts weren't able to sit flat. |

Re: A real BadSeed
Unbelievably jealous of you fab work, I hope to have half these skills one day.
When welding on the bottom brackets to the bags, did you just set your pinion angle at the 1 up that porterbuilt recommends and put the plates in level? |

Re: A real BadSeed
I designed these little perches to hang off the side of my rear frame rails and support the fuel cell a little closer to the cell wall it's self. The bolt needed to be right at the edge of my alrerady boxed frame. So, I cut some relieif holes and came up with the tube to cover my bolt and welded nut.

Re: A real BadSeed
Yesterday, I built my rear crossmember. I wanted rounded corners but mandrel bent frame rails aren't in the budget. So, here's how I tackled that task.
