 :lol:  I made it when I installed the US Cartool cowl braces.  Welded in  threaded rod coupling nuts into the added structure of the US Cartool braces. Easy/simple/cheap and lightweight. 




This one looks nicer, its a member on here just can't remember who ? Travis?

Nope, it goes straight across.  Best picture I could find with the aircleaner off.
