A good friend TIG welded new big bearing ends, drain plugs, and all the torque arm brackets on my swap meet housing this weekend.
Need to get it installed and build a panhard mount, and shock mounts under the Torino.

Then on to all the rusty sheet metal

Nice work on the rear end, Joe! As you know, that sheetmetal won't fix itself, get after it! A panel a week or a tack weld a night goes a long way on getting the work done.

Looking good, Joe…seeing it sitting on all fours is a real treat! I think you definitely nailed the stance. I, too, joined the Quickjack club a while back and they sure are handy…
