does anyone know of any tips or trcks to eliminate the process of removing the body of your truck to pull the starter. i tryed bending the body up as far as i could , but had trouble with good cordination w/ pulling the pull start. i was thinking if i could make a hole n the body and somhow line the hole w/ somekind of metalring or gromit/ so when you pull the starter it doesnt cut the body w/ the pull or the re-coil. cause i hate having to remove the body to start the thing. an ideas will b



e debated. thanx, clay unruh

I just trimmed the body using a Dremel with a Sanding Drum to allow space for the Pull-Starter. You want to do this from an edge if you can. A hole would make removing the body for any type of maintenance a real pain.</p>

If you insist on a hole, try a length of fuel tubing, split lengthwise. Use it around the inside edge of the hole, maybe using ShoeGoo to help hold it there. I do that for the hole around the pipe stinger on my buggy, but it doesn't need the ShoeGoo for that.</p>

Which vehicle do you have?</p>

Dremel and sanding drum is how it is done, definitely. Will make the cut out look clean, no need to bend anything up.
