Hi: :whistling: This is not an actual wheelchair, but a "transport chair" purchased from SEARS. Folds up better and smaller than a wheelchair, and is very light. Four 8" wheels.
I made brackets with square tube and attached on each side under the antenna mounts. Drilled the holes one size larger and put in longer bolts with lock nuts. I then shaped "arms" to hold the chair on, from a chrome chair, the ones you see in community halls that are stackable. The diamenter was just right. These arms simply slide into the square tube and fast with a bolt held in with a cotter pin. Bungee cords hold the foot rests, which are detachable. Seemed the easiest solution. All in all it works well. I can take the whole unit, arms and chair, off in about 1 minute without having to take chair off the arms. Also attached a set of LEDs on the bottom of the chair and set them up to be running lights and brake lights, same as the light under the trunk. Just a little extra safety.
Any questions, shoot me a private e-mail: :080402gudl_prv:
