Progress after 19 weeks

In the last 6 weeks, there has been excellent progress

  • Engine, gearbox and transfer box all fitted
  • Propshafts complete the driveline
  • Rear cross-member has been replaced with a bolt in item
  • Front cross-member has been replaced by a winch bumper

Progress will slow dramatically now as I have a new job and the Christmas holidays

This is the rear !!
This is the front !!
Shafts for the PTO winch and a 12 gallon fuel cell will occupy this space.

Land Rover 101FC exhaust manifolds should link up fairly easily to the Honda Fireblade silencers, one of which is in a very approx position next to the mockup radiator.
The coolant hose just needs extending to the radiator
Upper 4-link mounts taped into place .

Batteries will go in this area too to get as much weight as possible over the front axle.

Chassis still needs some prep after chopping off all the crossmembers and brackets
 
Dunno where I'm going to put that fat pipe yet, supposed to go to the power steering reservoir, but I don't know where that's going yet !!
