Got an email with a tracking number for my missing suspension parts :woot: been a long 9.5 weeks.

With the help of friends I also got set-up to weld aluminum so I can get the rest of the floor and firewall squared away :woot:.

Picked up more tube last night to hopefully finish everything that will require.

Also got the rest of my brake pedal stuff as well.

Picked up my fuel cell today, tomorrow finish modding it for the sending unit and hopefully that is taken care of.

Hopefully it'll be a busy weekend.
 
who made the cell? Does it have a bladder?
thats an RCI fuel cell same one I had in my last buggy, all aluminum no bladder, unless he had a custom bladder made?

Whoever welded that aluminum did a nice job looks great!!!
 
that is a LOOOOOOOOONG lever arm for the engine mount bolts to support, especially on a jump or bouncing. I would think about moving the poly bushings to directly under the engine, and running a tube from the chassis out to the bushing. Basically the exact opposite of what you have now.

This is how I did mine

and FYI- a single layer fuel cell is not TREC or U4 legal.
