Seats

As both my son and I are both over 6 foot tall we decided not to fit aftermarket seats. Instead we are trying to maximise the available head and leg room by basically sitting on the floor.

We have used aluminium sheet to make a tunnel, back panels and leg support and this has created the basic seat shape. We will then add some 4 inch thick foam covered in waterproof material to complete.

Not sure how comfortable it will be but it has worked out really cheap and we are happy with it so far.

Exhaust

Started off with a budget 3 into 1 manifold. Cut the manifold just after the point where the 3 pipes become one. You now have a single pipe pointing straight at the floor and a 90 degree bend.

Turn the 90 degree bend until it exits under the back of the sub frame at the correct angle and tack it back on with your MIG welder.

You now need 2 further 90 degree bends and some straight pipe to link the manifold up to the silencer. Tack everything in place and when you are happy with the position weld it all up. I used some slightly bigger pipe to sleeve the joints.

Two rubber bobbins and brackets are used to mount the silencer to the sub frame and I also added some steady bars to the silencer which attach it to the gearbox / engine. Solid !!
