Hey that looks sweet! But I have to ask, why green?

Thanks for the complement. The Vanguard was an easy fit, even with the side panels on.
I have Sam to thank for helping with the engine coupling.

What is your plan for a hydro cooling fan?

ford4150 07-29-2015 08:38 AM

2 piece cooling fan.
I often wonder if a cooling fan is even necessary. All three Cubs that I've bought have had so much debris an the hydro unit that I couldn't see the fins. There couldn't be much cooling going on.
Still, I'll put one on.

What did you use for a U-joint? Looks like one from a car steering shaft.
