Re:My chopper build 2 Years, 9 Months ago

I've been too bust to be on this project everyday but I was out there for the better part of the day today and I got some work done.
I started by marking cutting the frame at the welds

Once I did this I mocked up where it would ride. About 3in lower, and decided to build a new rear mount for the tank. The guy that did the frame work the first time put a cheap looking tab on the back of the tank which I hated. I have since fixed that problem. I marked the location for the new recessed mounts.

Then bent some steel to form the drop

And welded the bottom in place I like my goggles!

I cleaned the welds and made the second bracket but I have yet to sink them into the tank. I will get to that later, I have done enough.
