I was also working with mine a few times this week and you can see I actually have the parts that are designated at 57 inches long on the plans left longer(taller) and I seem to relay on that extra length when I'm flipping to keep it from slamming on the ground or wheels. So... it might be advisable to keep them longer.
Thanks Jason Banks I will keep that in mind. I was going to leave the ends open so if i need to extend I can just sleeve and weld or clevis pin from the side of the tilt frame. Thanks!
