Sounds like you already installed a SYE. I would have offered up my bnib hack and tap.

I think my old man and his buddy Rob plan on stopping by. When are you doing it next weekend? I can stop by for a couple hours either Sat or Sunday next weekend.

We did make some good progress yesterday but there is still much to do. A few pics from yesterday:

Tim's burn in of the Ruffstuff frame stiffeners and the Clayton crossmember

Jes worked on the TNT sliders

Lou started prep work for the Napier fender flare installation

Tim worked on the Brown Dog motor mounts and C-Rok steering box brace

And I contributed by staying out of the way so as not to impede progress.

Nice progress guys. Good to see the support!

Tim always has a lot of forest land products on hand to help with the build...

...and is super enthusiastic when it comes to installing things that are yellow...

This is not Ed, he didn't do anything... I swear...

Some dudes...
