    I think it's a fantastic idea. I've had a couple different Attex machines that had something like that. Both looked to be original factory-attempts at reinforcing things. I duplicated what the factory did with some 1" square tubing when I put my Chief together.





    It's nice that it takes just about all of the load off of the body. You can also put a rivet or a bolt through the ends of the tubing and hold the body up to the seat frame. ABS doesn't really ever sag much, though (compared to HDPE...). I also had an ST/295 years ago that had a piece of 1" tubing bolted to the frame right under the middle of the floor pan. it was located just behind the sticks if I remember right, and it was located so that whenever you stepped into the bottom of the machine, the load was on the 1" tube under the floor pan. It eliminated flexing of the pan, and you could stand right up on it and bounce around without risking the pan.

      Still liking those lights Brian?

      I am in need of at least one so I figure I might as well get a set. Mine measure 5.5 round though, is that stock do you know?

      Plus I have all stock battery size and engine so I can't go crazy big on watts
