--=BIRTH OF A SAND/DESERT CAR, Mounting The Seats to Frame Crossmembers=--

Mounting The Seats
I welded crosspieces and joiners on the bottom rails. Other cross pieces are being made up and tack welded in place. I had some tabs that would work to mount the seats, so I tacked them after careful measurement and alignment and then welded. 3/8 grade 8 bolts, lockwashers and nuts were then used to secure the seats to the frame. The main motor mount rails were also tacked into place. More bracing will be needed. A roll cage will be designed and welded into place.

I figured everyone would like to see the crosspieces BEFORE the seats were mounted. Some tweaking was involved for a tighter fit. So I updated this page after the seats were shown.
