This was acheived by welding front to back, performing a single weld on each side then doing the respective weld ont he other side. I welded a great deal of vertical welds first and think this may have been the key to minimising/negating the chance of a banana.
There is a slight bow on the rear tube at the bottom of the main chassis part but not enough to be bothered about
