So I had to remove my tunnel to repair everything inside that was broken or rusted. Now I am thinking about just making a custom tube frame tunnel that will make it easy to get inside to do any work later on down the line.
Has anybody done one before? If so, do you have any pics? I am looking for ideas, and suggestions. |

Well, I have a friend who is an automotive engineer (well, that's what he went to school for, now he is an engineer for Bridgestone), I have asked him about it, and he says he will work on something for me, but he says that it shouldn't be hard to keep the shifter location stock, improve the functionality, and increase rigidity. I am going to draw something up with him, but if anyone has some ideas for a design, throw them at me and I will see how it fits in the mix and hopefully I can design something with him that will work for all of us that want to improve it.
I know this will inspire the wrath of the originality buffs, and so I apologize for the sacrilege of this modification. However, I want something better than original, if possible. |
