Did a little work on it today in between studying for differential equations. Got started on adding the bracing for the rear bag mounts. One is almost done, the other side is about halfway done.

looking pretty sweet.. hope the top upper forward mounts hold up for ya

They will, there's a lot more going to be added to them to strengthen them up. They wouldn't last very long the way they are right now.

Haven't really worked on it it at all in the last few weeks but I started to get back at it a bit this weekend. Got both gussets on top of the bag mounts done, just need to finish welding everything up. Also figured out what to do for adding another cross member in the rear. Going to make the cross member in the last pic into a manifold for the valves, as well as part of the support for the fuel cell. I'm looking for some 2.5 gallon air tanks too, but haven't found any yet. Anybody know where to get some or who sells them?

Pretty good looking fab work so far. Still have not figured out how your gonna weld in that cardboard upper link gusset but I guess I will wait and see.

(j/k LOL)

Weld quality in the May 10 pics looks top notch!

Thanks Linn. I'm trying my best to make everything look good. I'm still figuring out how to weld the cardboard gusset in too, its pretty tricky, always wants to just catch on fire haha!

Here's a small update. With some help from my dad and a neighbor we got the cab set on today. I just wanted to make sure the body mounts ended up in the right spot before they get finished and I needed a bit of motivation to get working on it again. Don't mind the mismatched tires, I had to throw some smaller ones on the front to get it lay out. The cab will be coming back off soon so the framework can be finished.

No cutting the firewall to clear the frame transition!
