      Exactly. This is just what I want to see.
      The only problem with being so straight and solid with the content is that the content quantity can only go as fast as the projects go. And the projects will always have delays and slowness because of parts availability or just redoing things 3 or 4 times.

  • @seymoarsalvage

    I said to myself when you were installing the EV steering, that you should have made a (rather complex I admit) bracket to mount the steering box/motor at a angle to better match the steering column. Yeah it woulda looked kinda funky at a angle on the firewall, but would have deleted at least 2 of the U-joints, which you have like 15 now lol. (P.s., I'm just rambling, I have no idea how to do most this stuff)
