[turbomonty]

Chucked up the front rotors in the lathe and had chatbot write a macro to turn off some mass
dropped 2 pounds off. the pads only ride on so much of what it had there...

 

[turbomonty]

Time to finish up some welds

 

[turbomonty]

Time to fight the final boss in fabrication
Main center link and then baby tie rods to the knuckles

 

[turbomonty]

Bent up the last piece of sheet
wraps tight on the drive shaft loop on the rear
a couple 1/4" screws hold the bottom of both sides down on the floor flange
the front will get stitched up and the whole thing glued once it is time

Anyone ever attach your steering shaft support to the A pillar?
the idea came to me from these helmets....

geeking out on my own EFI again so i needed a hall sensor on the crank first thing. got a dodge journey cam sensor and just turned it down a little to fit with new O-ring groove. i needed the plug to come out straight with no elbow. bolts right in now
