About time for an update me thinks. Well, I haven't really made much progress on the build. I just bought a new road bike so I'd feel guilty about dishing some more cash out onto my SM so soon
I have however flipped the tranny and diffs so I can mount the motor facing towards the rear, (thanks to Suicideneil for the suggestion) and also aquired a set of Ti VBS jounces. The rear skid needed a tiny tweak to get it to fit with the jounces but other than that everything ran pretty smoothly. Those jounces make a HUGE difference, now the front and rear ends feel really solid. Hopefully in an impact (if the truck ever sees one
) the jounces will act as a spring so the skid is taking the full force.
Enough of me, here are some pics, they're a little better this time because I didn't use the flash, so everything doesn't have a yellow tinge to it.
thanks for looking
