Crazymays77 · March 19, 2010, 07:54:40 PM

the new motor is all together except the intake carb and dist. then the acc. but those are not going on till its in the tracker. got the mock motor where i want it and everything looks good. need to make a crossmember but i have to work around the front drive shaft so have to figure that out yet. then i found that my upper brackets for the rear links are bent to crap so i have to re do them after i get the mock motor out. looks like i got some work to do lol.....

Crazymays77 · March 19, 2010, 10:54:38 PM

well i went and got a carb, dist and some odds and ends from mudbrat71. thanks man.

Crazymays77 · March 20, 2010, 06:24:25 PM

well i got everything made for the motor trans and tcase to get put in now. I made the crossmember and finished the motor mounts and pulled the old motor and welded everything solid. then painted everything. here are a few pics of the motor and the engine bay.

Crazymays77 · March 20, 2010, 06:51:02 PM

I got the radiator mounts in just need to make the upper ones to hold it down just havent figured out how i want to do that part yet. now i need to get a throttle cable that will hook to the carb and my gas pedal. then i need to make a bracket for the shifter cable to work. then on to wiring it all up. lots to do yet.

Crazymays77 · March 22, 2010, 08:10:15 PM
