    80 Series Rear Tire Carrier Wing Design

    there were no prototypes or sacrificial parts. I had one shot at it and I did miss. For some reason, all bolt holes were off to mount to the frame. I had to open them up to get the bolts to go through. So for those attempting to rebuild what i have, verify the holes. Then, verify again.

    80 Series Rear Tire Carrier Wing Design

    I dont plan on it but the way i designed the pieces, you would double up on each piece qty and mirror your assembly. You would still need a mount to bolt the armored cap on.
