Building New 225" FED Need a little help
nitroscott:
I have been using N&P for a lot of parts and blueprint and I like both of them. I always feel like I am bugging people asking questions lol. I do like this bench racing that we are doing to get this thing built. I want to do something really cool on the very front like an eagle beak out of tubing. I split a 1-5/8 tube and welding it to the ends of my main frame rails and then lay the tube front axle in that half tube and weld it up. Then do the beak in front of that and use the beak as a tow hook. Not sure how I woud make that happen. Just an idea.

Yes 1.25 upright with a plate/tab that goes from the top tube to the bottom tube that also is welded to all three tubes top rail, upright, and bottom rail
nitroscott:
Thanks Paul. I will let you know how the reinforcing goes.

The middle bolt would be largely redundant, i.e., not stressed hardly at all and unnecessary.
Paul New:
I was talking a full length tab bolt on the top and bottom
