Re: 1 step forward 10 back...
what my official guess here is the bracket i had made to move the abs over to clear the tires broke from years of vibration, caught the wheel and ripped out all the lines..
the worst thing about it is that i have a porportioning valve sitting in my garage off an older obs i just havent had the time to hook up. i was just waiting till the motor swap to clean the engine bay up.. DOH!

Re: 1 step forward 10 back...
the cross member that should sit on the ground is about 4 inches off the ground now, the tire is touching the back of the tubbed out firewall on the pass side.
...
but...
its ok cause i traded my dirtbike for this lil project..
now i can steal parts and frame clip from this and get back to work.
