Put the stamp on the beam in front of the wedge....
Waiting till all the hoses are hooked up and then I will choose the best location for the throttle and choke cables. They are in limbo now. Thanx for looking.
 
I'm working on the hydraulic hoses now. Is it acceptable to use suction type hose with clamps for the return line between the filter and the reservoir??? The line from the valve back to the tank is not pressurized, correct ??? Thanx for any help...
