View attachment 39958have trike running now. still working on cooling problems etc. 2.2 Chrysler w/5spd larry
will post better pic of fork later..............not very computer savvy! the fork according to onetonmagoo, is a springer look leading link...what your seeing for springs are nothing but 750 Honda shocks. there is a rocking link that's ties the shocks and the tubes together. larry
I would love to see that rocking link section also[/QUOTE
I'm having problems compressing files to post pictures.....the first one must have been beginners luck. the link pivots on brackets welded under the fork tubes. the link is 1/2x1" hot rolled mtl. what I call the "hammers" are the strips that tie the shocks to the link bars. this keeps the shocks and bars in position while moving up and down. just a personal preference, but I like this look better than the leading link with the shocks mounted lower on the fork tubes.

exhaust manifold is in back of engine...afraid it would melt aluminum rad!! I have made a scoop and have boxed in the rad..so think that will cure the problem. can't seem to upl
