  • done with front end job.....pics....

    well im all done, here is the pics from the first hour....





    and then here are the pics over the last 3 days, had some issues.
    1. the stem bolt was too long and would tighten up, had a machine shop cut off 1/8th inch and rethread it.
    2. somehow the shopper shop that cut me some wheel spacers, mounted the wheel and cross threaded the axle bolt, another trip to the machine shop. so after 2 days of down time, we continue.








    so all in all, it look great, took it for a test ride late last night, rides great, except my shifter falling off and driving 3 blocks back home in 3rd gear. lol the rotor feels kinda warpped, little vibration on heavy front braking like from a 40mph - 0. might just order a new rotor, it was a used one that came with the wheel off ebay.
