trailer and roll out day. marathon garage sessions til the wee hours of the am after 10-12 hour workdays and i'm still not finished! But she'll make it.
took it off the jackstands at about 1 am last night. a last minute change (call it a screw up) in steering arm design made me have to put my 2" wheel spacers back on. the extra length/ cost me ride height/arm leverage on the shocks, which has me a little bummed. not enough to throw in the towel, but 10-20 percent off what i wanted.
new brake master went in, and promptly came back out with the dread realization that it had fine thread and my banjo bolts were coarse thread ... cue 1 10mm coarse pitch tap and thankfully, problem resolved. Installed, bled and due to be tested within an hour.
Worse was midnight discovery of both wheel hubs having their inner bearings seized. Thankfully, i had another golf cart front end in the scrap heap with good hubs so i just regreased them and swapped them in.
brakes and jets ...fingers crossed. laterz all!
