Re: Dashboard Complete (well almost)
Bob, No need to compress phots this small, if you aim for 4-500kb, we will then be able to click on them to open up to give much clearer detail. Thanks for posting on here.

Reverse light switch
If you are going to have a reversing light then a switch on the gearbox is best plan. Reversing light must also have a warning light on the dash. It's not practical to mount the switch on the chassis as there is too much flexibility to give a positive action. Once adjusted, has proved very reliable....

Re: Oils etc
Great to hear of progress Andy.
EP90 is fine for gearbox and diff, 1lt is enough for both.
A good quality multigrade will be fine in the Jackal engine. Change every 1500 and filter every other change.
Do change the filter now though. Sorry, sump off.
No experience of click 50.

Re: Front wheel removal
My seat base is 550mm long so oversails the chassis rail, 2" riser tucks in behind the rail keeping the seat in position. Much better support for the legs giving superior creature comfort on long runs.
Hence space for tools.

Re: Front wheel removal
A piece of wood a couple of inches thick screwed to the front edge of the seat raises it up to give a lot better comfort. Space underneath for a tapered tool tray. Pics and dims to follow soon. Watch this space.

Re: Front wheel removal
I made my own wheel nut spanner which is small enough to pop in the under-seat tool kit. IMG_0997a wheel nut spanner2.jpg The nut tightens up against a rubber O ring so is not necessarily very tight. You could try loosening it by tapping one facet with a piece of wood and a hammer. May then be finge...

Re: Grease gun
I've never heard of a 14mm grease nipple, 1/4" perhaps which will be a 6mm.
Grease nipples on front suspension?

Re: Anti Roll bar
I have been known to drive my Triking 'enthusiastically' but have never felt the need for an anti roll bar. The Triking suspension is very well designed and with Hagon Nitro shockers is quite capable of handling situations up to driver limits. If you are going to race then that will introduce limita...
