Trying to keep with the actual mechanics and engineering of the 1:1 machine. This is the center brace all the wheel power gets sent to.


So I figure it better be strong. Hard part is trying to find the exact mounting points as the driveshaft also passes through the top portion. Still in the chunky phase,,



And in order to get the back axle to articulate some I had to use the ball joint rod end. Some play in shock pins will allow movement but hopefully restrict too much. Guess I will find out when an uneven load is piled in bed.
