Agree...if you plan to powder the frame, I might opt to scribe a straight line , from the hole in center of the of the vertical lip, back to 1 " from the 1st stand mount hole in the frame. I would also run a line, from that hole forward, to cross ,where the bottom of the front cross member sits. What do you think BREW? Longhorn
