So far it is coming apart real well. The power steering has leaked all over, and I did catch it on fire when I burnt the door hinges off but I was ready for that.
Don't need the power steering so I don't care about it not working.
This coming weekend (if I have time) I will take the other fender off and then start taking what is not needed from the engine compartment
The dead thing is a dog I am building. It does kind of look like a dead creacher when laying on its back like that

I thought it was kind of fun getting to "look in" to your shop and see the beginnings of a dog on the table, and a punching bag hanging in the foreground. I reckon that's for when a project gets frustrating?

My shop (2 car garage) is cluttered with stuff. I try to keep it clean but there's only so much room.
I love my bunching bags. Almost every time I go into the shop I hit on it for a few minutes [URL]http://www.triketalk.com/forum/threads/33920-Moai?highlight=moai[/URL]
My son and I work out on it for at least a hour every Monday Wednesday and Friday. On Fridays when I am not on call I do Beer and Boxing with it
I narrowed the rear end on my trike. Set the banjo so it was more to left side to get pinion angle . That way i did not have to worry about move trans up or down,,. I cut my axle tubes with a pipe cutter. worked out super for me.. Home made drive shaft and all .. Just take your time and i bet it will be a super nice ride:)
fowler...good luck on the dog and trike! diver..do you mean that the trans and diff are mountedridgedly together??

I need to get me a punching bad to calm me down a little bit, and to get a good workout. Sounds like it would be a lot of fun--especially the Beer and Boxing. Of course the bag would end up hitting me back if I had too many beers. :laugh:

No they are separate but very short drive shaft (If i remember right 10 inchs). No just shorten one side of differential more than other side so it was off set with trans tail shaft. having less pinion up and down and more sideways . If that makes any sense lol..

A punching bag is very good for relieving stress and exercise.
Moai (that is what I call it) does hit back kind of.
Over the years I have gotten fairly good with the double ended bag but it still comes back and hits me every now and then. I want to move to a smaller bag but my son likes the one we have and if keeping it keeps him interested that is fine with me.
Also I have a headache bag that swings around Moai. We mainly use it on Beer and Boxing nights.
Its a bag that is hung from a pool that we can swing around Moai at each other while we try to box. We have to slip, bob and weave to get out of its way. If you do not you get hit in the head. Its padded so it realy does not hurt but its does make you look next time
I would like a hanging heavy bag though. I just do not have room for it
