Hopefully I can stick with the plan and it all works for me.


Made a bit more progress. Subframe is torn down and sandblasted. Started welding up the frame seams. I'm taking it slow to make sure I don't warp the frame. Welds aren't all prefect but are getting better than they used to be. I was pretty happy with this one in particular. Others are close to the same but not quite as good. Let me know if I'm wrong and I should be doing something different with my welds.


Next step is to flip the frame over, finish welding the seams and jig in on the table at ride height so I can move the LCA mounts and remove the UCA mounts. Also will need to decide if I'll be mounting the shocks to the frame or the engine bay bars I'll be installing

I also started to clean off the firewall in prep for smoothing but I won't proceed further with that until I have the frame complete
