    [cl Got it running and drove it outside then down the driveway, that's about 300 yards. First thing I didn't like was the windshield too tall, my line of sight is right into the top bar. I may get used to it or could cut it off. Goes in gear hard, only idles at 650 but may need a higher...

    4bar radius rods

    Why not do the same mount on front as u did on the rear?. One short bar will cause the axle to roll as it travels up and down.

    Who can answer a CDL question?

    Our government is a terrorist organization. Hundred years we didn't need a permit to catch rain water. Today the police state busts children for a lemon aid stand. We are much too afraid of the "man" it has destroyed our creativeness. Sorry about the rant,it's the anarchist in me. Have...
