Don't shout at me but why not make the front chassis section that much wider to account for the gap.....

Probably because using spacers would be a lot easier/quicker than going back and redoing the front frame

From the brief bit of head scratching that I done.

It would appear that it is the intersection point at the bottom of the front frame tube & the Two upright tubes that attach to it.

I can't name the parts because I do not have rhe book to hand.

If I were to build another chassis, I would ensure that the front frame was made to suit the brackets.

With the chassis fully welded, altering the front frame was not an option.
