...when I ordered a set of steering head bearings for Sallymax from Morley this morning!

Figureing on being ready to install them when they arrived, I started taking taking her apart....then I thought, hell, I'll put in solid motor mounts, and as long as I was in the neighborhood, I might just as well replace the removable frame section cause it's got a ding in it where the crash bar hit when Sally had his mishap.

Then I said....fuggitt, I'll tear the whole thing apart, take a whole shitload of measurements and make sure the frame is nice & straight....prolly install frame braces and possibly frame gussets too!

BTW, not even close to the steering head bearings yet.....this may be a lengthy project! :biglaugh:

Boys, I don't know Garrett....it'd be real easy to just throw that motor in the truck and head for PCW....eh?

Haha, nah, just the frame/bearings, motor mounts.

Prolly gonna have to do somethin about the vibration, I'll see how it is first but my hands fall asleep already so...yeah.
