I want to call it the rear axle, but that is not a good name for it. The horizontal member between the two rear wheels is heavy gauge steel formed into a "V" cross section the point of the V is facing forward, one leg horizontal and the other sweeping down at a 45 degree angle. This forces any airflow down underneath. Within the V is a torsion bar. The leading edge of the coroplast conveniently rests in the V just under the torsion bar. I used wire ties in three places around the V shaped member. Did that answer your question?
