Time for a weekend update guys.
The Kenworth turned into a glider, but for good reason! I got some new goodies to add to the build.
Santa
'Claus' dropped off an early Christmas present.
Thanks Craig. You are a heck of a friend. A little bit of the Hillbilly Deluxe will live on with the Kenworth now. I spent a little time this afternoon cleaning up the casting lines on the new axles, and swapping the hardware for stainless screws and nuts. They'll look great when, and if, I paint them now.
It might be hard to see, but I am re-working the torque and radius rod mounts, so I can get improved 4 link geometery. I machined up a couple blocks that bolt to the bolsters, replacing the original L-brackets that were used before. I'm also going to work on new top link mounts for the axles. More pictures to come, as I make some progress.
