actually.....had to 'dig out welding table"

as for dragging me rear...we only have 17 ac and 1 transition that would drag and I would only try it with a cage and 4x4....or maybe a cage and chains

so low is good, around here

by the way here is my Arse...what am I missing....for real...newbie style :confused3:

other than a back ho'

Looks like the adjustable doohicky attached to the axle replaces the chain.

Not much to update, spent the day trying to figure out what was wrong/up with gauges

Tach worked, needle is broken/rusted off so for right now, I used a hot glue gun to glue on a paper clip (yes ghetto, until I figure everything else out and spring for a new dash) The metal was in no shape for solder etc...

I pulled the hood and stuff off to have access to wiring thanks to FEL, and pulled the harness, light switch and key out as a unit

because of paint, electrical tape and factory non stick wire covering I couldn't tell exactly what was going on so I stripped it all off and traced wires

biggest issues were the ground on the dash was unplugged and the switch wiring was fubar :confused2:

I ordered some wire loom tape and will wrap wire later when dash is replaced

of course the charge light was on, and after checking generator by shorting plugs and using voltmeter(it was fine nice steady reading that moved up with throttle)

after rewiring dash, it comes on with key in run position, goes off above like 800 rpms (checked with volt meter) under 800 rpms it drops to 12.8 or so and light comes on

SO far the 6 book set I downloaded has been spot on :thumbsup:

So now gas gage works, water temp moves and the warning lights work...I will save up for some Bling...(new dash/gauge panel)

ghetto needle

and stripped down and marked wire loom

the aux lighting wiring now works also!!!!

until next adventure...which will be exhaust and rubber fuel hoses
