Well this has been the most boring winter I can remember (personally) and I've not been as Skint since the 1980s,along with health issues..and trying to sell my house for the past 8 months ? ( my cousin just sold his within 2 weeks Embarrassed,location,location ?)
So motivation is definitely on the low side Cheesy

Well I've had some motivation over the weekend with the warmer weather ,thank goodness ..I picked up a spacer I'd had made from my engineer buddy..(asked him ages ago,but only just got the money to pay him Undecided)
It's for the propshaft I'd made, I'd moved the engine foreward slightly..but when I fitted it..I still was about 1mm too short..and certainly wasn't going to fit some washers Roll Eyes
So I've been cutting and shutting and using the sliding spline I should have used in the first place..which means I can fit it much more easily ? So more pics of that soon
I've fitted another front end to the chop (temporary) just for moving around purposes? While I have some stuff done on the springers..and fitted some exhaust wrap to the trike

Glad to hear that you managed to find some motivation. Still looking for some around here.

Well I've found some more motivation  Smiley
And after looking at the Diff mounting I decided to add some strength back into the design of the frame? Seeing as the passenger (mrs Stinkey) will be sitting on it ?
It's going to have these tubes welded to the plate behind the tow bar and they will slide onto some solid slugs ( welded) onto the frame,with thick pins pushed through with split pins holding them in place ?

Nice and smooth.
As for a lack of holes at the back, there's always the diff cover. Cheesy
