Default Re: 212 rebuild begins!

Here are some pictures of the modifications I made to the conversion kit to make it fit my Melex. Pretty simple just took a little while to get it all laid out. Also i have a pic of how I extended the steering arm.

Nice progress on the cart! I have finally got back to work on mine and I will agree with you EVERYTHING is one off. Lots of Fab work. I have even did some more stuff that didn't need fabbed that I did just because I was so far in to it I might as well. How does it ride with the new lift? I didn't see anything, but did you replace the motor as well? if so what did you replace it with?

Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

If you want feel free to check out my build.

I am keeping the stock motor until I burn it up. I rides pretty decent with the new lift. It does have quite a bit of lean to it when turning but I don't for see it being a problem. I will check out your build!

I believe the lean would be due to the front end set up. You could use a stiffer spring on the front that may help or maybe look in to making up a sway bar set up for it. that will definitely help.

I am keeping my stock motor too for a while I have plans to use the parts left over from my build to build a lifted pick up truck for my son. should be fun. when I get that build going I will post it up to share.
