Shortening wheelbase
I used a couple ratchet straps to hold it together while I measured before welding it together.

Welded together
Here I have enough of it welded together to put it on the lift.  |

With HIGH currents thru those ORANGE cables you probably do NOT want to 'loop' them because that turns them effectively into COILS, which can concentrate EMF fields...not a good thing, especially for nearby electronic devices of ANY type.

I’m thinking of more of a S curve verses a loop.

No worries there. DC current loops produce a constant magnetic field, but a single loop does only provide a very weak field even when the current is high.
Also, the orange tube contains both leads so the fields they produce cancel each other out.

I wasn't aware there were TWO leads in each of the multiple ORANGE cables, so their fields would indeed cancel each other.
