Here’s a piccy of us at SVA:
A trip to Metal Supermarket in Southampton in the morning to get some steel tube, then a visit from TA member Black-Cat (Tom) in the afternoon. Huge thanks to Tom for bringing his TIG round to weld this bar in for us. He also brough his tube notcher which is an awesome bit of kit!
Tube notcher makes quick work of getting the angles and surfaces right for welding.
Tom welding the underside of the bar – not an easy place to fit in!
The resulting welds!
Bar ready for paint
And paint on the bar






Hi Patrick, what spec/dimesions did you use for your steel cross tube for the seatbelts ? Regards Jeremy
It’s cold roll steel 32mm / 1.25″ outer diameter. I don’t recall wall thickness but I remember it was pretty chunky – you can get an idea here in the 3 point install: https://www.msportster.co.uk/2019/03/27/3-point-reel-seat-belt-conversion/
