went from this
To this
Also came up with a rear hanger idea not the most eye pleasing but I wast sure what else to do. Yes im going to cut off the extra length of bolt
and I may even do away with the nuts and lock washers towards the inside of the clamps and put a sleeve in there to hide the threads.
nice work wrapping the pipes ! why not just weld the pipes together and eliminate the outside clamp ?
it sure would look more clean and be just as sturdy
you could use a piece of 14 gauge or so maybe 1-1/4" x 3" long scallopped on the ends and ventilated with some holes to tie them together top and bottom, layed in there
