you should be good at that ! it's better to change them in the dirt though !

im gunna try and get the stuff i need to box it in tomorrow. but i got my brake line and clutch line ran. i just need to bolt the pedals in and bleed them. and then finish my steering and seat mounts. and install my gas tank. and figure out whats up with my front wheel bearings. the spindle nuts are as tight as i cam get them. but the hubs are extremely sloppy. and then wire the motor and light.
wow that list is a lot shorter looking in my head and im sure im forgetting something.

i finished boxing in the horns around the cv's and installed my garage door opener. my plans are to install my cv's. figure out my situation with my front wheel bearings. and then keep mounting stuff till it runs. lol
