Topic: my cp rolling chassis

[mowdak1]

  Actually it's real simple process Lloyd! You're already there if you got the photos on Photobucket, you just have to scroll down the page a little and tell it to cut the code for you, then copy and paste it here. Once pasted to the reply form, click preview so you can see which one is which as you're loading things up, and add your text between pictures.

And... That statement about not being computer literate is why I threw the tutorial together! A lot of folks are scared of it, and it really is easy to do dude.


So is using capital letters where they are supposed to be in the English language!

Impressive, I like the billet pulley and clutch assembly. I trust the grooved tires on the front are just for rolling it around, and that you will be putting more appropriate tires on for racing. If you can get the tops of the fenders as level with the ground as possible, you can then lower your seat (you will need a more secure bracket anyway) and move it forward so as to shift your center of gravity down and to the front.
 Your doing great.

OK Fordfan... thumbnailed your images for you in the first post so you can see how purty it is when you do it with thumbnails!

NICE LOOKIN MOWER !!!!!!

[fordfan]

thanks snowman, to do what you said about the fenders, wouldn't that be a little more than discrete? Also what kind of suggestions would you have for the seat? I was under the assumption that it has to stay a lawnmower seat according to the rules, and that is how it was mounted from the factory. I am new to  building thing and am more than open to suggestions.

Not a problem!

Loyd I just took another look at your pictures you have the sprocket hub on backwards. Slide it off and flip it around. If not first time you dump the clutch it will break.

[fordfan]

thanks george, and yes the sprocket is backwards only because this is just mock up to this point. will be coming all apart again for paint and when it goes back together it will be correct.

Hey Fordfan ,
i don't know but I would agree with you abought the fenders , I was under the assumption that your not to cut the fenders at all .

As far as the seat goes I would leave it , it's a great thing to have a little bit of spring in the seat if you ask me . kind of a shock for your back . What I did do to mine was put a block in the middle of the mounting bracket of the seat so it couldn't spring to far together and fling me out of the seat .

Great job! looks just like mine! (but mine is still pretty much stock)

[murray1]

Hey sweet lookin mowchine!!! I am building a couple right now for the C/P class. Where do you plan on racing it?

[fordfan]

thanks allen minaker i like your idea about the seat and putting a block of some sort in there. now about racing it, i live in illinois and would like to have it ready and take it too mendota to start off with.

[George Herrin]

In US builds you cannot cut the fenders.
