The brackets for the motor are basically in place. They seem to be pretty strong as they are but I might need a bit more bracing. I will find out soon enough I guess. I will drill a hole to mount the motor plate on one side and a slot in the plate on the other to allow a bit of adjustment.

Next up is to take the axle apart and cut a keyway slot into it. Then reassemble the cv joints and put it all back together. I also need to make a limiting strap for the suspension since it has about 6 inches of downward movement and the chain would have to be pretty loose to deal with it. If I limit it to 2 inches down then I will have no problems with a chain hopefully.
