Jeff,
Those lights look very nice. I need to go back to your thread and find the details of you installation.
For the time being and on the 147R I chose to go with a standard Truck Lite marker type RED tail light. Yea they dont fit as nice as you flush mounts but will do for now. Same ones I have on the 127.

These do not quite cover the widest holes in the fenders. I used stainless #8 screws and nuts and washers and they bolted into the next set of holes inboard. Looks pretty clean.
Had some quality time with the 147 this weekend.
- steering column installed
- drag link installed,
- wiring harness in place,
- Engine is in,
- tail lights wired, I ran a ground wire from the bat to the lights for these,
- SG is mounted and wired,
- ground wire is attached on S/G bracket.
- New seat is on, still a little more work to do on that.
- Governor lever is in position but needs adjusted.
I will try to get some pictures on here in the next day or so. Hope you guys can wait! We are making some progress!
Eric (son) got a nice buck Saturday evening so we are working on processing that. We take our time and make some quality venison burger, jerky and kielbasi. (11 point, 12 inch spread, 160 lb live weight). This will cut into the Cub time this week But I like to help him even though he will be 40 in June. Lets us spend some quality time together.
Regards,
Chris
