G1 custom flip seat
I am constructing a flip seat for my G1. It is not complete yet but I wanted to share my progress so far. I used 1 1/2" x 1 1/2"x1/8" angle iron and 1/8" thick black iron sheets. The rear bumper is 3 1/2" square tubing. The tubing welded on top of the bumper will hold the 1" tubing that wil act as a armrest and to support the seat when it is flipped. I made these removable due to the fact the body flips up to access the engine.

Re: G1 custom flip seat
Thanks, I made the cage but it can't really be called a roll cage because it is just 1 1/4" conduit that I welded up. It is basically for looks and to hold the top on and the windshield that i don't have on yet.

Re: G1 custom flip seat
I like the looks of that also! How did you go about making the connections to allow the back to still be opened?

Re: G1 custom flip seat
The front hoop is separate it goes down thru the front end and bolts in. The back hoop has 2 tubes extending forward to hold the roof. The 2 tubes drop into a piece of pipe welded onto the front hoop and is bigger in size and a pin goes in it to hold it.

Re: G1 custom flip seat
Your more than welcome to use it. It may not be the best way but it works fairly good.
