admin commented on this post about 4 months agoFinished tacking the flanges to the web for the 2 side rails. decided not to trim flanges to the correct width until I have attached the sides together braced them and fully welded them together.
Also, Tyres arrived during the week $15 bucks each + $12.50 shipping each. Not off roaders but they'll do for a start.

$27.50 a corner is an absolute bargain. Paid three times that for mine at the local M/C shop. -

Once the top and bottom flanges are tacked into place the flanges will be trimmed to follow the contour of the outside web with the overall width of each rail being 35mm.
