Craig,
Here are some pics of the anti-wrap bar.
Above is the lower bar. Need to get my angle and notch the top bar. That's going to be a chore. Tubing is 2" x 1/4" DOM. A real
to work with. It will be strong enough to take a beating though.
As you can see, the mount on the axle isn't welded in yet (just tacked). I want to pull the 3rd out before I weld everything up. I will also be boxing it in an wrapping a piece of plate down the back side a part way around the axle for some added strength.
Here's the pivot point. The ends are rated well over 80,000 lbs and they will allow a lot of flex (side to side) without binding. The shackles are temporary 1/4" and will be replaced with 1/2" before I finish. I may shorten them up an inch or so too. May be overkill, but so what.
As it sits now, the lower end of the shackle is still above the frame rails, so it should be OK from trail obstacles.
Again.. still need to fully weld and add some gussets.
The inside edge took a bit of trimming to get it to sit square. It would have been easier to move the whole assy towards the drivers side, but I wanted to center it as much as possible.
I'll take some more pics once I get the top tube attached.
