The forward tubes will be connected with a dimple panel. As you can see my mock up with cardboard here but the design might change slightly


I kept the stock support to give me visuals along the way. As you can see the design somewhat fallows the stock lines in a way



Since the entire structure is going to be tied together strong there’s really no need for the stock tension rod brackets / power brace so I came up with this design to free up some room for the v mount



The tube is the same 1” .120 wall that I’ve been working with. The gussets are added under and on the face for strength.
I’m not worried about these mounts breaking or bending but more so the strength of the bolt in this position but I’m very confident in it.


All the tubes and structure are now fully welded
Next I’ll be mounting the panels back on and knocking out the gusset panels
