Continuing with my updates on the rebuild... I have manged to finish my 'homemade' CD/motor mount... It was my first attempt on milling with an actual mill... a little different
from sticking a milling bit in dremel and hacking away on the material... the finish wasn't perfect, but i'm sure to get more function than form with this mount... so finished the surface
with a file, sandpaper and scotch brite. got it all bolted up together and feels great... it's a lot more sturdy than my previous attempts... there is no play
at all from the mount... photos of the mount layout below.
I also got the suspension all mounted up... I love the look of these Widetracs... feels a lot smother that the prolines and offers a few more setup options... see the photos below.
