Sarge's leading link front end

 

AND ONCE MORE FOR THOSE WHO MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN:

DISCLAIMER 

First of all note that the title of this page is "HOW OTHERS MADE THEIR " LEADING LINK FRONT ENDS.  I am not telling you how to make a leading link front end.  I am not responsible for anything you make, I am not responsible for your (if applicable) lousy welding  techniques or workmanship.  As I said on the front page of this website:

Building a trike is hazardous. Any modification to the original vehicle can be hazardous. Before starting your build, realize that you and you alone are responsible for anything that could happen to yourself and others that you come into contact with. Please, when you work on your trike, if you can't perform the tasks such as design, welding, etc., have a professional do it for you.

(From Ding Bob's Site: "We can't stress enough the importance of having qualified people work on the high load areas of your trike because if it is done incorrectly then you are going to get into trouble.  DON'T TAKE THE RISK.)

Test it in a safe, legal manner. The web sites of trikers who show you how they did it are not responsible for yours or others well being.  If you cannot accept responsibility and are the type that will sue, you are scum, please disregard everything you see on any of the triker's web sites. We do not advise anyone to actually build or even consider building these  devices.  Read, but do not act upon this information.  Everyone should just live a quiet, pastoral life because the dogs of law lie around every corner and I have no wish to be closed down like other useful websites from threats by parasitic lawyers. (When lawyers get rich, society gets poorer.) Remember they just show you how they did it. They are not recommending that you do it as they did!
