Re: 53 3100 - complete rebuild and upgrade . . . .

A little more . . .

I find if I tackle several items at the same time it's easier to stay motivated. So, after I had my tube bracing tacked in, I shifted gears to bump stops. I wanted something simple, so I grabbed a set of "jeep/ universal" energy suspension stops from Amazon. Took some 1" mild, turned and threaded a slug for the step notch. Drilling was fun but my mag base helped alot. Welded them up, 4-3/4" clearance to the tube, done.

On to the next item -
