Motor mount plates.... I had one give up bigger then ****, so note to self, dont be lazy and just cut down the stockers cause they wont last. :flipoff1:

I got some 1/4 plates from BTF that Im going to install. Heres the damage

The second pic you can see it bent to the point that the metal was starting to peel... good thing I stopped wheeling every weekend and started lookin at it. laughing1

Make the light quick disco....kill the look IMO. Or get some mini fogs from Wal Mart.

The light tabs are welded to the stinger bars, I think it looks pretty cool. I will see you on Thursday and we can maybe wire em up and puts your new shaft in that bitch son

Im gonna let it be and see how it "grows" on me, its not terrible, its not great... I dunno. I did weld them in a manner that would be easy to knock them off though . It will get me through night riding soon and that was the objective.

Werd up Matt... had fun hangin last night. Im stoked to be legit in the frontend ! :woody:

I am stoked for you guys with the new place and garage, very nice setup man! That 20 minute drive is cake, we need to have weekly garage nights between mine place and yours, too damn close not to man!

Buggy is looking good, hope I can help you finish up a few more little projects here and there on it.

IT was me. The sportster don't like burnouts it just wants to rare up, but the roadking loves it.

HARLAN PREP:

Been hammerin out some small stuff on the buggy this AM... swapped the smaller crank pulley on to it so as to not clip the upper tab on full compression. New belt weldered and painted the under engine deal and screwed down the janky switch console on my dash ( was loose and floppy )

Took it down the street to jump test the frontend since the small pulley is on, was having fun launchin the frontend on a dirt lip but I found the next weak link. The electric fan zipties couldnt take the bouncin and my fan dropped laughing1

Have to sort out a more supportive mounting setup, other than that I was having alot of fun :popcorn:

is that a pic of just 1 tacked in or both in there and boxed? it looks like it needs moved up, ie, I need to take some off the inner 45* running edge .

P · Jul 27, 2008

Just one, and I wouldnt move it any closer personally.... its so tight to the pan I dont think it needs to be tighter for any feasible reason. Im going to put the second in and put small connecting pieces of tube from the front side to the rear. ( no box ) that way it will clean up easily and not be excessive.

They fit great, I wouldnt change any thing on the cut of them.

blacksheep10 · Jul 27, 2008

without boxing, they are liable to twist. 1" tall in 1/4" isn't that strong, and they're made to be boxed. if not, somthing is way better than nothing :woody:

P · Jul 29, 2008

I put a 20 dollar removable water tight storage unit on the back of it last night.....(cheap ass action packer ) Been wanting to put something on it thats easy to get to. Would still like to put a removable basket in the back above the fuel cell as well. Im gonna wait and let wontwork do something aluminum and blingy back there though. Hopefully I can talk him into it !

Just goofin last night...

THe action packer serves a good purpose, I like mine a lot.

blacksheep10 · Jul 29, 2008

what's holding that cooler in?

P · Jul 30, 2008

The bottom is sittin on top of my battery box ( I actually put a lid on it :flipoff1:

) Im just throwin a strap , tree saver and few odds and ends, it wont be much to support. Temporary solution for a lil storage.

More importantly.. last night I actually cleaned up the floor and put a twin stick shifter boot on my shifters !! No more hot leg for the passenger !

Looks a billion times better too.

Beyer · Jul 30, 2008

I have an "action packer" and am currently working with a guy on an aluminum cooler rack to mount about the action packer. I will post pics if/when I get it done.
