Ever feel like things take way longer than they should???lol.
Ok, I've been working on this notch longer than I thought I would be, but I like how it is way better than how I originally had it. Still have to make two more little boxing plates to finish the rear of it and then fully weld everything. Getting really close though. Should have it all done tomorrow.

Papastrk gave good advice to make a fixture to help set things up. So I got some all thread and made two fixtures, that way I could simulate as if the bag was in there at the different measurements I needed to check. And held the bag cross member in place when it came time to tack it in.


After I tacked everything in. I checked again with the shocks and bags in place collapsed and at full extension. I also had to add 1/4" spacers to the ends of the cross members to makeup the difference from the other setup.




This pic shows the plates I made to finish it off. In the beginning of all this I wanted to box the frame completely but decided not to for multiple reasons.
