[ATTACH=CONFIG]75473[/ATTACH] Checking IFS fixtures before welding...:Coffee:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]75638[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]75639[/ATTACH]Waiting on final machining of the jack shaft spacers and TIG welding of frame, so cleaned the Cave and flipped the work table around so the trike will roll off when needed, WOW look at all my extra floor space? Annnd! tuning the bicycle's for exercise riding, The Schwinn is 1956 24" Boy's Red, fenders and rear rack next, (Ohhh! and a new BIG seat):D
[ATTACH=CONFIG]75723[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]75724[/ATTACH]Still waiting so I drug out one of my old projects, eScooter, lasted for years on 36 volts, 350 watts, would do 25MPH and go for 20 miles of smiles on a bicycle kit. Thinking of changing it to gas engine? more miles?
I Rotated[ATTACH=CONFIG]76131[/ATTACH] the table 1/4[ATTACH=CONFIG]76132[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]76130[/ATTACH]turn to get the car in, used HF dolly's, should also handle the trike weight when turning back to unload? The next trike is going to be Shenanigans which is 12 feet long and I am hoping for Mustang II control arms (HomeMade) and rack and pinion steering. I will be needing help on this, more later...
[ATTACH=CONFIG]76354[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]76355[/ATTACH] IFS mock up again...

[ATTACH=CONFIG]76825[/ATTACH]Left side control arms mock up, Adjustable shock towers at machinist...:wave4:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]76902[/ATTACH]More mock up and checking alignment to see how close before welding.
sorry, hit the thanks instead of like button.....anyhow, might have missed it, but what kind of spindles are you using up front?
[QUOTE=LarryA;701346]sorry, hit the thanks instead of like button.....anyhow, might have missed it, but what kind of spindles are you using up front?[/QUOTE]Hi Larry, Thank you for stopping by, I bought a Chinese quad, Roketa a long time ago to make a different trike 1F2R and after my brain freeze it will not work, so when another idea came along RT, I thought a little local run about, then things got carried away and looking at the IFS on the Polaris I told myself why not give it a shot and see what happens, (I need to keep busy in the garage). Here's hoping the CHP will buy off the inspection as a Polaris IFS, I'll take pictures as proof. Sooo! to answer your question the steering, control arms, spindles, brakes/cables are from the Quad...
