  1. flyingbricks HZ Ute- I carved a plenum lid!

    flyingbrick replied to flyingbrick's topic in Projects and Build Ups

    I stuck a disk of metal to the snout so that i had a solid guide to sand down to. This made things MUCH easier. Nearly ready for final assembly, waxing and mold making. SO MUCH SANDING but ill be forever upset if this comes out all wavy. I bought a good new oil pump. This is exactly the model i wanted (high pressure standard flow) and the price was great so couldnt not get it. My ali express fiberglass turned up for the mold too.

    I also drew up and laser cut some mount adaptors. I coppied the basic idea from the few ausie hq- LS mounts available (but i aint spending nearly 300$). Mine all slotted together and were good enough for welding without a jig of any kind too.

  10. Do you think it could have been flex at the feont of the chassis that did it? Looks super flimsy there (its the only bit you havent reinforced)

    I spent a few hours out on this today. First I made that first piece fit. I cut out this So that I could fit this. new steel wasn't quite large enough to replace all the shit (bit by my thumb on the seam) but will deal with that later. I zapped that in and moved to the other side, I cut this out, And then realized that now was a good time to straighten the bend at the bottom. I don't have many good pics but the outside face had been in a pretty good impact and was concave rather than flat and this impact had tweaked the whole end in. (this should be parallel to the end and the seam straight) So both sides (now not attached to one another) were straightened and everything was measured over and over using bits of wood and verniers (to check overall widths) And that's as far as I've managed to get.
