[QUOTE=insurance guy;209836][QUOTE=russelljones48;209832]It is alluded to in some of these posts but I started my build in March and have had a couple of experienced builders suggest that many panels should be installed with clecos so they can be removed while installing brake and fuel lines - obviously access is easier without installed panels. I had one experienced builder/vendor tell me that his go-karts look like a porcupine because he doesn't install most panels until he's completed his go-kart and tested his build. That made sense to me so I've purchased a few more clecos and I'm not permanently installing some panels during my build. It also makes some sense because I'm going to remove my firewall and replace it with a thicker .090 FW. So, I have to drill out my rivets. The thicker FW is one of those things I didn't think about until recently. I now have about 60 clecos.[/QUOTE]
