That’s clean, but may I ask what tooling was used to bend the tight radius on the seat base tubes? I can’t find any dies with that tight of a radius to rebuild my seat frames.

No tooling needed. Just put 2 small pie cuts into the bar where you need the bend, that's how the passenger side was done. The driver side tho, I cut the rear bar out and repurposed it for the side, it happen to have just the right bends, and then put a strait bar in the rear. Hope that helps!
