At long last.

At long last we got the shipment of parts in, although we are still missing the "contactor". That will be arriving soon. We were hoping to get the motor hooked up today but we ran into a couple of snags. We found that the shaft coupler (see photo and video) would only slide onto the shaft so far and then stop. We are checking with Wilderness EV to see if this is normal. We also needed bolts to attach the adapter plate to the motor. The other snag is that the motor mount that was sent from CEV was the wrong size.




We ended up cleaning up the transmission and getting the gauges ready, figured out what sizes of bolts we would need and called it a day.
