It's a shame about those hubs causing you grief tho! Bet that was annoying! Looks good now tho. Keep it up :)

Setting up for an Auto Meter temp gauge, removed with a heatgun and ingenuity. But then had clearance issues with the location, modification / relocation happened.

Thanks Lawrence, I appreciate the sentiments!

I have it started on jackstands, testing for leaks and squeaks. This things sounds mean..

Parts listing so far:

Promotive with 2003 5pw on PC3 with Quaife LSD. Barnett carbon clutch and spring kit. Motor has been touched by EDR here in the NW Oregon.


KAD
Alloy hubs
Alloy flanges
Alloy spacers
Wheels
Centerlock conversion
Pedal box with Wilwoods with adjuster and a Wilwood bias valve by my seat for finer adjustments
7.9 vented 4 pots
Rose jointed front arms
Rubber mounted lower arms
Rear disk brakes

There are other things on the car but it would take a bit to list all of it so I am sticking to the motorcycle matters..

Getting tidier, but then I have more wiring to strew about for more gadgets..

simplify wiring so I can add more gadgets is my current mantra. Ha

Got the fuel tank welded up with AN fittings, fuel pump and lines run in the boot. Cycling the fuel pump after I filled it and checking stuff I found I had a trunk of fuel spilling all over. Damnit,
Faulty fuel line
Had to empty the tank and fix all of it high on gas aromas. #sogreat

I swear this thing will be on the road in the next 24hrs, unless it kills me first!

You barely could slice through the clearance of this wheel and tire with a razor blade. Tolerance be so close..

Nice work. Cracking on with this build very quickly. Big fan of those KAD wheels!

[evolone38]

Thanks Racerlike! I have been working on this build day and night trying to get this summer daily on the street. I got a quick test drive in last night.. I did say quick....

Back into the shop.. broke the diff, it let go within a 1/4 mile. Gotta pull it out and ship it back. So not looking forward to the wait.

Pulled the Quaife, gotta drain and pull the joints off to ship back the culprit of my woes. Hopefully less than a month wait from Promotive🤞.They say I will get the brand new version of their own in house diff cases, which should fix the binding problems.

Guess I will be able to dial the other components in without a hurry of wanting to drive it... time to work on my Aprilia I guess.

Such is the state of this current affair, wrapped up and sent back..
Guess the month of May will let June be the start of driving season, so it may-be.

Well it may be missing parts now, but I have some moments of things moving at one time..

Even if it isn't drivable, I like to still hear that exhaust note..
