[QUOTE="davidd, post: 101933, member: 1177"] Craig, You can do that. The tub is a little wide at the front without the side panels closing it back down, but that should not be a big problem. The single rear brake on the D is operated by a cable. No rear fender or brackets are necessary. The difficult part will be the hinge arrangement at the top front of the tub which attaches to the UFM. Someway, the hinge has to mount to the RFM. The tub frame has two top tubes that each have a small tube attached at 90 degrees. A spindle pokes through the end, then through the UFM, and then the remaining tube on the tub to make a hinge. [ATTACH=full]24979[/ATTACH] The bottom mount is a robust slotted tube that slots on to a longer pivot bolt. The end nuts, when tightened, turn into a counterbore on the tube that locks the bottom in place. David [/QUOTE]
