Random updates, little by little getting things nailed down. So far I have the front end reassembled, rack mounted, spindles extended for new tie rod mount, with shocks disconnected, we have ~12 inches of travel, and that maxes out the working angle of the BD ball joints. I have mocked up the front end with the stock rear shocks(12") and still have room for another 1.5". Will be scraping the tie rod sleeves and making my own with heims at the end.

Removed and stripped the swingarm today. Boxed in and braced, ready for bearing #3, as soon axle arrives, will start on boxed ends for bearing #4 and #5 on the outsides. Mocked up a simple strut the same length as the Blaster shocks for mock up, might drop the rear an inch or two, still thinking it over. Placed the 200 honda engine in the swingarm, and boy do I have work to do, first off cutting and rerouting the drivers side top bar to clear the recoil cover, and chopping the upper most mount bar out to clear the carb. Gasket kit and replacement case half are in hand, and will order piston kit after I check the cylinder out.
