Atom 3.5 bracing and gussets pictures ?
Some time ago, sector 111 had a nice blog post showing in detail the bracing and the gussets added in the "new" Atom 3.5/2013. I saved these pics but unfortunately lost them due to an hard drive failure (was in an unbackuped directory of course...).
Wonder if any of you would have those pictures or some similar to those showing the bracing (easy part) and the gussets from the engine frame.

I read Shinoos blog regularly and this feature about repairing a section of chassis is the only one that shows pictures of the chassis that I can see ..

Re: Atom 3.5 bracing and gussets pictures ?
There was another one, a specific one about the bracing and the gussets with two good pictures of those
It was a few months ago, earlier than the "repair" post.
Unfortunately it looks like it's gone

Does anyone have this saved or know where I can find it? I could also use some 3.5 frame shots. Bracing the Atom as we speak to increase chassis strength.
Re: Atom 3.5 bracing and gussets pictures ?
This is my Atom 2 with the 3.5 bracing added to strengthen the chassis, does the picture help?

This is really helpful! Are we talking about the two extra bits of tubing I highlighted in red?
Re: Atom 3.5 bracing and gussets pictures ?
Yup, I was advised by the factory it would be worthwhile so had it done after the powdercoaters had sandblasted the frame. If you want to add me on Facebook I can send you some more pictures too, easier than uploading here. Https://d.facebook.com/VickersUK
