furthermore -
even if the tube is good, if the trunk is weakened by rust, the tube will

not only that -
you can't even jack up the rear end of a bare frame under that tube without
bending the tube - DO NOT ask me how I know this.

I am considering replacing my tube with something more substantial, more
suitable for jacking purposes. Of course I have a lot of plans. I have
less time.
