    So, steering with a wheel. I have thought in the past about a Pinto rack attached to a straight axle. Was going to ask about the axle.
    I picture you sitting like you're in a recliner with your back against the tire, ass on the ground and feet forward, is that the plan?
    One of my daydreams for a few years has been a tilting (for lack of a better description) wheel 3 wheeler. It would have a Jap crotch rocket in the middle with driver on the left and passenger on the right. Each in a short pod, almost on the ground with the engine between them, one behind each front wheel. Hydraulic telescope front ends tied together with linkage. Would need a lever to pull so it could be locked upright when stopped at a light or in traffic. Never gonna happen, but one of the crazy things that drift through my semi-conscious wanderings.

    This build might fit in the cycle cars thread.

    Interesting front end. Where will the lower shock mounts go?
