    I have been a long time "lurker" of these forums and they have already been a great source of information!

    I am about to start converting my rig (made from series 15 aluminum) to a seat mover with traction loss. (I believe that is 3dof?)

    Here is my rig as it sits, it will require disassembly to make the motion rig and correct some design issues that I didn't think about before building it the first time.

    The plan includes an OSW, new pedals (probably Heusinkveld Sim Pedals Pro but still undecided), new seat (current seat was cheap and comfy but wouldn't survive motion), and building the motion rig. I will try and follow the plans for Open Sim Racing's Super Sport Motion rig.

    I will try and keep this thread updated as progress is made. Thanks in advance for the interest and help.
