Aluminum H-Brace Fabrication Blueprint - 1993 Ford Taurus DIY Brace Drawing

This document is a CAD-style fabrication blueprint (filename hbracedwg.jpg) showing a welded aluminum H-brace assembly. The drawing depicts two horizontal square tubes (specified as .125" wall x 2" square aluminum tube, shown in dashed/hidden lines) joined by a central vertical member made from 1-1/2" Schedule 80 aluminum pipe. Tapered gusset plates flare outward from the central pipe to each square tube at a 38° angle. Key dimensions given are: 1-5/8" for the exposed center pipe section between the gussets, 5-5/8" for the vertical distance spanning between the two square tubes, and 7-7/8" for the horizontal width across the lower tube/gusset span. A reader can learn the materials (aluminum square tube and Sch. 80 aluminum pipe), the gusset angle, and the primary dimensions needed to fabricate this brace. The drawing contains no title block, part number, date, vehicle year, make, or model information, so its exact application is not stated in the document itself; it was uploaded to a 1993 Ford Taurus gallery, suggesting it is a homemade strut tower or chassis brace design for that car, though the drawing does not confirm this.
