In the sunshine today, everything's visible. Still need to tidy up the welds but that should clear the axle fine and not foul the brake pipe.

Probably need something better than just a metal strap to attach to the rear but for now that's good enough.

Ooh. I just thought, need to put the damper on and see if it fouls ......
Looking at it, I think it's going to be in the way at the top.
Edit: Looks like there might just be enough room. However, some pillock threw away the big washer that fits on the lower shock mount.

Good news. That works. Need to get the washers for the lower mounts.
Its also really weird to bounce the car and have it stop wobbling...

Needs two hangers making up for it now, but it meets the muffler.

Looks tidy enough.
Sounds okay, too.

It's running on 30:1 2-stroke fuel because the gas can I use for premix fits in the engine bay without falling out.
It should clear up once it's running on plain gasoline.
