Forgot about the Fuel Tank, so no 3rd seat.
Also fitted LDS tank and pump, high up as they are Splash-proof but not Water-proof.

ps Rob
Mine has not been designed to "un-fold" (see Apollo vids).
It may "fold" but for a different reason :D

Now comes the part which causes some worries, the alignment of the Engine/Clutch/Diff casing with the remote gearbox.

Measurements - Try Out.

Engine is set as low as can be in the chassis,

Clutch shaft with UJ clears the top of the cross tube by 10mm.

The front prop shaft clears the tie-rod and cross tube by 10mm.

The Kawasaki prop shaft is slopes down a little, because the back of the front diff box sits down

by 15/20mm in relation to the engine.

I will see if I can drop the engine down 15/20mm to compensate, with out the sump protruding below the chassis line.

It should all fit together and work :D

Gear Box Brackets.

As the casing is LN, will re-use those mounting points at the sides.

For the Rear, just going to copy how Citroen did it, need to remake the Oil Seal plate much longer and bolt the bush support to it.

Ended up with the brackets on the back of the rear plate.
The mounts on the chassis will be bolted on, so that spacers can be used to set the correct height of the box.
At the moment all the shafts have clearance?

Left hand mount was hard to measure, fabricate and fix, Right hand side Very Hard.... as there is not much room.
