demuire Posted August 8, 2005 Report Posted August 8, 2005 Oh, that is SO COOL. Did you cut the guard? Or did you just drill holes to bolt it on? I even have an excuse now, because my wheels don't fit under my guards, and with spacers they'll be even worse... Quote
rob1 Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Posted August 8, 2005 Yeah boys, I cut the guard! Last pic on previous page. :y: Quote
rob1 Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Posted August 8, 2005 The fact that the flares were taken off te27 moulds meant that I had to "splay" the outer edges out. Not much, maybe half an inch each side. I just put the top bolt in then work my way out from there. Quote
demuire Posted August 9, 2005 Report Posted August 9, 2005 What about the back? The back is dual layer skin... Did you cut it too? Quote
rob1 Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Posted August 9, 2005 Yep, Cut both the inner guard and outer guard. Then welded them together. You can either cut them at the same height and weld a bit in between them, or cut the outer guard then bend the inner guard out and weld. then grind. Quote
rob1 Posted August 11, 2005 Author Report Posted August 11, 2005 Took it for a thrash last night, handles like a go-kart! And with the lightened flywheel it has lost that below 4 grand lagging I had from too much juice. I can see the diff won't last too long with the new clutch either. Hopefully get out to the track this weekend and see what times I can do. :jamie: Quote
demuire Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 That's AWESOME :jamie: I suck at welding... Show us more pics! :dance: Quote
