I also got to see how the tub fits with the longer frame.

Very cool!

Hurry up I am dying to see this thing complete!

I didn't get any work done last week, went up to Mass and Vermont to go wheeling with my Jeep club. Yesterday I made some progress on my MB. I finished the body mounts and rear supports for the centered d-ring mount.

I also finished the steering box mounts

I also added a rear floor support for the centered rear body mount and it will be tied into the cage. All but two of the body mounts will be tied into the cage. There isn't a lot of room to run "frame tie-ins" so I decided to have the body mounts play double duty. Each has a 1/2" bolt, six total.

I mounted the body Saturday with the body bushings

I still need to stretch the nose once I mock the engine, radiator, and fan.

I started the front frame arches for suspension travel. I will trim these the next time I have the body off the frame. I can continue my fabrication with them the way they are.

I got my LS-TH350 flexplate

Also my tires showed up

semi-mounted one so far

Test fitted the Atlas

Mocked the drivetrain to get an idea of how things will fit.

And set the nose in place to see how much room will be under the hood.

Took a step back to get a look at my adult go-kart

Just stretching out today...

Very cool!

The nose is now supported by its mounts

I'll trim up the bottom when I disassemble for paint

and bolted to the fenders
