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.

Yeah, I just posted this, and am figuring out why it's yelling at me. It's on my buddy's server. He needs to tweak something. Apparently. I'll let this sink,and bring it back up when I can fix it.

Pics under construction. This is my web slave hard at work.
