Re: My projects

Kittay, you got me jealous, 2 nice projects.

Can I ask what the specs are on the 255 wheels/tires? Backspace/width/size?

Re: My projects

Thanks

Last night I got the TB disassembled and soaking in solvent, needed a rebuild. Stoked since I'm learning all this new stuff

My head's all ready to go:



Cleaned up under the motor some more, getting rid of wires:


Just waiting on gaskets now..

Re: My projects

Did you throw any assembly lube on the cams in the head? I don't see any. The aluminum scores quite easily up there! Are the pistons in yet?

Re: My projects

I lubed it up
In the second pic with the VC you can see the assembly lube at the bottom. Don't worry I get very particular about ensuring it was clean enough and all. lol
Bottom end's all finished up, got most all of my gaskets today, rest comes in this week.
Spending 200$ just in gaskets.. :ugh:
