Trees de la fork

Fork parts

Had to use parts from an old servicar front end.
Cleaned them and covered them in oil.

BP would be proud of me!

Cooked my pan cover rings and the tranny plate in oil.
My neighbours yelled at me, but someone has to do this job ;-)
I did this in front of the barn, my whole yard was covered into stinky smoke.

Talk to the fork,

because the face is not listening

The fork is back in town...

Yesterday the parts for the fork arrived, now I can start to rebuild the fork.

Tried to figure out which position would be the smartest for this fucker...
Next monday we will continue to work on this.
