Does that answer your question?teazer said:I can't see the front triangulation on that loop. Please explain how the rear suspension works.
Rich Ard said:I think it would look better if it matched the curvature of the tire, but either way that'll do it!
Somewhat. Straight tubes are stronger but the issue is still the rear mounts will flex slightly and the front is rigid. The rear should also be welded. And the lower shock mount will try to tear off the back of that cross brace. Try to gusset it or better still move it forwards to change the direction of the forces.Maxd22 said:Does that answer your question?
