Cat Parts- Todays picture shows the now almost completed lift cylinder brackets . The curved openings is where the horizontal shafts from the lift cylinders will rest and pivot .
With the warmer damp weather the bare metal is starting to oxidize . Monday i will start dismantling the parts , sand and do body work on the majority of the parts . Then the areas I have to go back to I can just sand off the primer later. It is surprising how fast it starts to rust once the damp weather hits.
Have a great Sat.
