[QUOTE="slravenel, post: 714425, member: 1068"] Its ready for wire and plumb, going over this weekend - but in the meantime we are ticking off a few other things. Setting up the front bumpstop pads with some good old fashioned cardboard CAD. These will be cut from 1/4 plate and will have a rib inside of them that should take most of the force. The big gusset along the corner of the steering tube will add a ton of strength into the whole setup too. Was hoping to get away with them both being the same, but with the way the truss is they are just slightly different DS vs PS but such is life...
