This is my tube bending 101 project. I am going to add tube gussets to the corners, but I ran out of tube.
I have thick skin. Tell me what I need to reinforce.
This is 1.5" .120" wall tube. A little on the small side I agree, but the mass of triangles should suffice.
The "T" on the back spreaders is soley to support the spare tire that is not on yet. Every other joint is at a node, although hard to see with flat black paint.
I just bought some coilovers, so a lot of the ass end will be chopped soon.
