staggs65 said:x2, Josh, for that patch you should probably put the rivets down through from the inside instead of up through from the outside. you'll ever see the underside anyways.
Yup, thanks for the info, after the first guy said it I got thinking about it and I was thinking about making them go down through.

and you can still put some heat tape on the inside after for some extra cushionAmes2000 said:Yup, thanks for the info, after the first guy said it I got thinking about it and I was thinking about making them go down through.

From what I hear and see, that is a bad spot for the pipes to be. The belly pan always melt, and crack there.

I run across a couple of blue ski loops in my parts pile if your interested as I see you only had one or are you going with 2 black ones?Anyway if you want em say so and I'll ship em to ya you can have em just pay shipping,I can send them from Calais so it wont to too much $.
Thanks to "mysledblows" I got the spindals that I needed. Thank you very much!!
I had some time this after noon and got the tunnel back from jeff(staggs65), There was a brace broken on it and he welded it for me. Thank you. I got it home and decided to put the belly pan together and on. I put the steering column on and the gas tank.
After i got the gas tank on and the handle bars back on with all the wires hooked up in the handle bars i forgot to hook the gas tank breather line up. So i reached in to grab it and the gas line was harder than a rock and shrunk so it would not reach the nipple on the top of the gas tank. I ripped the handle bars back off and the gas tank back off and i took the wire harness off and I'm going to replace both of the breather lines. The oil one and the gas one.

love the cotton candy garage. I have anything you need. just scrapped a sled i built years ago that didn't have many miles on it. rear skid is long travel with xtc shocks and stiffer front spring. I have a complete front end in silver, shimmed with grease fittings. front front springs painted ohlins yellow. Staggs, give me a call with anything he needs. I will help you out. Can have allen drop stuff off for no shipping. Too bad I just sold the lower end out of this sled.
