Ok, here is the beginning stages of the prototype. The starting weight was a healthy 71 pounds before any machine work.
As it is right now, the part is about 40 pounds. When I modeled it up with all the contouring the final weight should be about 12 lbs. 9 inches of stretch, 2 inches up and 50 degree angle. I checked the squareness and everything is within .001" .
The way this works is, the part that I am installing registers from the original bearing bores. This will align it perfect, and will aid in the assembly of the modifications. There are two tangs that I will use to rotate it to a perfect spot.
I will post more pics later this week, when I get the front bearing bores machined and the alignment plugs complete.
