Thanks Mr. C and Blmpkn. And Steve you're exactly right...I've seen the light and I don't think I can go back now haha.Originally Posted by Dirtcrasher
Yup, he's making some great stuff. Things that I couldn't do back then without equipment. I told Lane that he's spoiled now, he'll never be able to fix anything without a TIG, lathe and a mill

Isn't that the truth.I told Lane that he's spoiled now, he'll never be able to fix anything without a TIG, lathe and a mill
As someone whose worked in several automotive shops, when I have to roll around on the shop floor at home because of no lift, it's difficult to muster the energy to even start a project.

Had some time last night to get some more work done. I got the bracket welded on within 0.020" square and warpage after welding. Probably not too bad considering the heat that went into it. Not super happy with my TIG welds but they cleaned up ok. Still learning as I go.
Needed a flat surface to measure from so I chucked this 6" slug in the lathe and faced off one side. Works much better than the bench which was all dirty and probably not flat from being dinged up.

It's looking good.
Maybe after you get that one finished, you could bang out a few more to sell and see how it goes. A hydraulic, rear disk brake on those hardtails is a huge improvement, and I'm guessing that one carrier would fit several models, including the 200E.

Thought about it, we'll see how this one goes. The machining takes a fair bit of time and setup. The snow has been too deep on unplowed roads still to make it out to the shop and finish welding it. Hopefully soon...

Thanks Chop appreciate it. Got some time yesterday to finish welding it out. I think I gotta build a jig for this if I decide to make more....the way I was doing it takes forever. Only thing left to do is make my disc brake caliper mount and then its done, ready to powdercoat.

Ha I better snag some more up so I can offer a kit ATC King.
Thanks guys I appreciate the compliments. Hopefully I can design and cut the last bracket next week and get this thing done.

Back from the dead! Finally got the last mount designed, all I need to do is cut some prototypes and start test fitting it. Was quite the reverse engineering project, thankful to have a friend skilled enough in CAD to help me along through the process. When it's done then it's time for powder and moving on with life!

Got the carrier finished last night. This being the first prototype, I've learned along the way and it's been a bunch of trial and error. In the future when I make another one I plan to modify my CAD drawing to where the caliper bracket and frame mounting bracket are one piece. However I couldn't get those measurements as I was building from scratch, so this carrier uses the 2 brackets welded together. Welded directly to the mounting bracket, not the axle tube as it doesent take much to warp it and the bearings will not fit properly. If I did it again I would weld the brackets on, then chuck in the lathe and bore for the bearings. Then it will fit perfect, no distortion.

Update: final got all my parts together for powdercoating. I
think. Found a place with good recommendation to PC my 250r frame, swinger, and hopefully 200M front triple for $175, as those are the only items that will not be coated black. Then the rest of the 200M stuff is gonna be PC'ed black, and should be able to get that done for under $300 I hope. Then I need to make one more plug for my 200M motor, powerwash, and repaint. I've got like 4 hrs a week to work on this project so I'm making progress, albeit slowly.
