Plumber hinge under the front axle.

I saw Tonys with the one piece pan, its a piece of art. Cutting the separate side pans is bad enough lol

Thanks.

I see it now.

The hinge wire is the innermost wire in that three wire setup, that also holds up the front axle.

I think I hot-lapped the original, at Sano II.
