Evening at Stockornaut: Crank shaft end piece back from machine shop

Sourced a large 1.125 diameter sprocket which will be welded and sleeved with the crack shaft for very solid connection.

Will use a resurfaced flywheel (original German) and brand new OE Clutch kit.

Templates for the transmission and motor being send to metal laser cut shop for the end mounting plates fabrication.

Other component updates:

Transmission – will replace main seals and investigate loose shaft, believe should be just a Circlip – if we find a whole circlip in the bottom of case – JOY, if not… mmmm…

Drive shafts, CV joints, boots – will replace with all new pre-assembled unit from So Cal, this removes any doubt about the previous condition.

Brakes – waiting on delivery of mounting brackets for upgraded front disc brakes

Batteries racks – design modification to balance to load, plan on using basic angle iron to build frame to hold batteries in place bolted through the floor.
