I made up a couple of 1/4 inch tubes for the oiling system for the pinon bearings.

Finish off all the welding on the rear end of the frame and clean up for paint.

Re: Turbine powered trike
Well the diff housing is bent just a bit from all that welding, as you can see that aluminum plug should slide in without any interference. I can get them to fit but the 30mm rod is very hard to spin. So i found out the hard way, the right side of the axel when bolt down in the housing was fine and could spin the rod and i tried the left side no go it would bind and would not spin at all. So lessons learnt. I don't have oxy acetylene so tried LPG touch that was useless. I know a local engineering place not to far from me who can help me out, but because of our stupid government of victoria we are still in lock down. So nothing i can do at the moment.
