Blas, if I could get my fab guy to rework the outriggers to pull the hoop closer to the middle (would take some iron twisting, or some custom welds), along with my previous thought of cutting down the lower portion of the hoop so that it cinches up closer to the bottom of the driveshaft, then I might just achieve the same idea you just mentioned.
