Mr. G. Brettin's Slow Motion Leg Hump

gbrettin · 09-12-2020, 07:07 PM

Welded up the bottom mount. My buddy did... I watched and learned. After he welded that up, wanted to fix how the top mount aligned with the bar. The top was slit and then I mashed the bar back with a hammer. after that it was welded.

The fittings came in so I doubled back to the house to pick them up and then came back to the shop to run the oil catch lines. Of course I ordered the wrong ORB fittings for the back of the breathers so I couldn't attach the whole thing like planned.

The lines were wrapped up on the coolant, because that only needed one fitting (previously mentioned).

The crash bar needs to come back off for a little grinding and paint... but it's pretty much done. I took some of the tape and plastic off so I could get some decent pictures. I've got to say, It was worth the extra efforts.
