1450 saga
Hello all, I posted my progress of the 1450 on my pwr steering page to completion of the steering. I had a short list of other things to do before wanting to place her back in service. Nightow1 helped quite a bit through the whole process to this point, and hopefully continues!
So far we have done the cradle mod with new iso mounts, replaced the ball joints on the drive shaft, replaced the front wheel bearings, replaced the rear axle seals, replaced the rear cover plate gasket, replaced the hytran and filter, replaced the hydro fan, tightened up the front axle bracket, replaced the tie rod ends, beefed up some of the engine shields, changed the engine head, spark plug, points, condenser, and coil. Then Keith did a tune up on the engine. We are currently replacing the work light wiring, and auxilary hydraulic circuits to both the front and rear. HOPING to have it ready to go tomorrow or so.... maybe a month from now... who knows? (This started as a quick in and out project)
Either way, we have made progress since the begining of summer. Should have some pix tomorrow.
Night all!
