Well at least your running buddy. You running nationally or locally?  I redid all the steering and front end on the old mower and tested it out. It handles like its on rails going left and right. I'm making slow progress on the new one. I'll have to post some more pics of it.

Here are a few pictures if the front end of the new mower. Home made style heim joints axle is fully adjustable. I have about a total of 25 dollars in the front end. Most of that cost is in the grade 8 bolts for the heim joints, spindles and king pins. Any comments are welcome.

Picture of steering wheel, dash, starter button, and kill switch. Just went together real nice. Got kill switch from BMI for 6.50 push button start was sponsored by my sponser which threw them would have been 7.25. Steering wheel I found at a junk yard and they have it to me. Comments always welcome.

Here is the full roller minus the brakes. With tins and everything on it. The seat was at a local store for 7.00 dollars. It fits me perfect and doesn't need side guards it wraps around my hips perfect. I'll get more pictures of the build when I tear it down to paint. Need to finish up clutch linkage, throttle, brakes, belt and a few other small things. Ill show more pictures of the things I did when I tear it all down for paint. Any comments or questions welcome.

Those numbers I have posted are out of pocket to me. I have about 75 bucks in this mower my sponser has footed the rest of the bill. But looking at everything sponsored to me there is rite at 300 dollars in the mower total. Again any comments and questions alway welcome.

Progress has been slower than I wanted. But it's built rite. A lot of hours thinking building and rebuilding to get it the way I want it. Minus a paint job and lowering it, it looks like it could go bak to cutting grass tomorrow. The look that I was going for.
