Hey pook, how far did you clock your atlas? Any pics of your pillow block? I've got a 2 peice front shaft already, but i need to probably modify the length to fit this chassis.

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

If you where talking about my buggy it does not have a one piece front DS.
All of my buggies have had drivelinetech two peice front shafts.

You put Drivelinetech d-shafts in HVAC?

It was two simple questions that were asked becasue I have no idea of who you are or what buggies you build.

Anyone who builds **** probably wouldn't take credit for it working for anything other than attracting flies.

This is my buggy

It does OK
. I am not the owner of drivelinetech, but i will only run his drive shafts.

Clark · Nov 19, 2009

My Atlas i clocked down as low as it could go in the chassis. Not sure where that is other than it'd be through the bottom of the belly if it was any lower. I believe I have about 1/2" between it and the top of the skid.

No drivelines in it right now, just swapping the new motor in. I'll post some once I get the new setup worked out.

Clark · Nov 20, 2009

Got mounts for the oil accumulator made, just need to find a place for it. Also cut out the gas tank holder, I was going to dimple die it but I'm thinking it looks pretty good without them, maybe i'll do just the 4 holes on the bottom. Also got a shot of the old bracket which is literally 4 times heavier, thank goodness for the table.:redneck:

Also check out my tube clamp, i'm going to attach a support back to the dash bar to help strengthen the steering column, but keep it removable, i don't want to weld to it.

Looking Sweet.
Your wallet is gonna hurt after filling that fuel cell.

Clark · Nov 20, 2009

Actually my wallets feeling pretty sore already:haha:

ChrisStewart · Nov 20, 2009

Nice fuel cell mount. It's got me thinking about mine now.

oldbeercans · Nov 20, 2009

this thing is sweet, outstanding job

sly-yota · Nov 20, 2009

fawkin nice clark!!!!! man its taking me too damn long to make my way back out there.. i have monday off ill see if i cant drop in to lend a hand, cant stay too lat as i work tue. :booo: 6-10's SUCKS!:mad:

Not Jobless · Nov 23, 2009

Nice :cool:

Just FYI...I recently talked to the folks at Jaz about the 16 gallon cell I bought. They said you need at least a single strap supporting the middle of the cell along the bottom. After doing a little math 16 gallons of gas is about 100lbs and the cell enclosure is only 20 gauge, might make for some sagging?

Clark · Nov 23, 2009

it should work fine, i'm not worried about it.:redneck:

Bunk1 · Nov 24, 2009

Where the fawk are the pictures man???

Clark · Nov 26, 2009

got the steering shaft gusseted, heim spacers machined up, gas tank bracket nearly done, arb compressor moved, tranny cooler mounted, and possible location for the oil accumulator.

cisco · Nov 26, 2009

Looks like your ready for KOH :redneck:

k2blazen · Nov 26, 2009

Hey Clark,

That fuel cell doesnt seem to fit in there all that well. I got a real perty aluminum one I will sell you cheap....just as long as we dont have to meet somewhere that I can kill myself making the wrong turn....haha :;
