The 2 angle supports for the bell crank behind the rear seat are slightly bent, about a 1/4 deflection down. I assume due a to loose rear seat sling. I've checked the drawings and it appears the channels should be straight. I tried to straighten the channels but the additional 2 tubing supports are are solid, so if I straighten the channels, then I'm going to bend the tubing and/or crack something. I can cut the channel at the attach point and straighten it and shorten it and reweld it, and even put in a stiffener if I feel it's necessary. The bell crank support feels very solid, what do you think? Thanks
Brian
