Why have tubes that move coolant back and forth just hanging there, when you can use them as structural pieces! That is the juxtaposition of this episode; coolant lines only for transfer or give them a second purpose? By adding coolant lines built out of 4130 steel with multiple mounting points, we create a structure that will hold our 2 sub-frames spaced apart correctly and mechanically linked. Now we can work on the mechanical components and the monocoque tub independently and only put them together when absolutely necessary..
