So how far along are you in the process? I just got my motor installed.

I've got everything installed except my chargers, my charging port, and the cooling fans (computer fans) for my controller. It was a bummer, because when it was all hooked up and I was ready to go for a test drive, nothing happened, and I eventually figured out that the controller was bad! How far are you now?

We just fixed the brake line this weekend, now we'll be able to tow/drive it to our fabricator. Then he'll be installing battery racks, and the rest is basically wiring. I've recieved my 2/0 cable, I ordered a cable crimper (hammer style) and some other parts off ebay. I basically have everything, it just needs to start going in once we get the batteries in.
