Rear Suspension Cross Brace

The rear suspension cross brace is made from 1.5" round tube steel. The transaxle support plate bracket will need to be weld to it. In addition I need to figure out how to mount the rear sway bar to it. Finally, I plan to implement a new hinging system for the tail that transfers the loads generated by the wing to the cross brace. It will be fairly involved to get right.

Note that there are no washers, safety washers or spacers between the heim joints and their double shear mounting points.
