cut some of the gates on your shifter to help in those "oh ****" scenarios.

Clark when will this be finished :corn:

for someone who has a lot of expendable income you'd think you would be wheeling by now. :eeek:

 

[Clark]

Yeah, i'm planning on making 1st to R open, but will worry about it later once it actually runs and drives.

My goal is to be done by Jan, so i can get a run or 2 in before attempting a trek to KOH 2010.

 

[PORTER]

I cant wait to see this thing on its lid. That is all.:D

 

[Moneypit1]

.

That might be tough to do.
If it were mine, I'd try for 2nd to R.

well where it says 3 is really 1st gear, i have a reverse manual valve body, so the shift pattern isn't what the gate says. So R to 1(what says 3) will be easy, and effective.:awesomework:

Technically, No. It's still a 2 to R, or a 3 to P.

But please don't let my worthless drivel distract from a phenominal build thread. Keep up the good work. Keep up the pics. :awesomework:

 

[Clark]

your right, i remember now you can buy a gate, that's setup for a different pattern. Maybe i'll try to burn one out, either way, got bigger fish to fry for now, heading in tonight to pick up where i left off, side jobs have been taking up all my buggy fab time all weekend.:mad:

Little Gibby's rig is gonna be done before this thing is!:fawkdancesmiley:

being slow? you would think being father time and all he would be on top of it!...:haha:

:hijack off:

 

[Clark]

ok, had a hiccup but it's over with. I noticed when i tried mocking up a driveshaft for the front that i had some major interferance with the starter, so i had to raise the engine 1.5" . I went ahead and junked the old mounts, and made some new ones. On the upside i now have more room for headers, and my hydro pump. Anyways glad i found that little mistake before i got too far ahead of myself.

 

[Boosted]

It still doesnt appear to have enough clearance at full stuff.... :eeek:

 

[Moneypit1]

That's an easy fix (if it's real). Leave the mounts exactly the same, but change the tabs. Instead of the ones you see, make a set with two holes in 'em. One hole exactly where the existing hole is, and another hole about an inch higher. The mounting tab remains shaped the same, but gives two different mounting heights. Gives you some options down the road if you find some other interference issues.

 

[Pook]

Clark, drill and counter sink the starter bolt. Had to do it on mine.

 

[jimboy]

How much header/driveshaft clearence do you have? You could off set the engine to the driver side, or reduce axle seperation alittle could be any easy fix. Keep up the good work clark the buggy is looking really good.:awesomework:

 

[Clark]

the ds contacts the lower link when i flexed it out.. Looks like i might need to switch to a 2 piece.

 

[Clark]

I'm going to do some homework on the DS and work on some more brackets until i figure it out.

 

[pokey]

Is that a new style of stinger :eeek: Maybe for pole vaulting or jousting:haha: Looking kinda tight in there clark. Put it together take it apart repeat, repeat, repeat

 

[jimboy]

1peice front drive shafts are so 1980's tech anyways:fawkdancesmiley::fawkdancesmiley:

 

[Bunk1]

Does your chassis normally use a 1 piece. I would be suprised if that was std practice.

#16 uses a 1 peice.

 

[Pook]

Single won't work with the more uptravel the new chassis have built into them.
