Another weekend cranking away... have some tie rod items being machined at a local shop so got around to reinforcing the lower control arms and relocating the pickup points better suited to the rocker arms. Round tubes are generally fine since they have the pickup points way out to not bend them but my dealio needed a set back so I added 1.5" square tube to the outside and plug welded it together. In the future if I need a new one I will have Coleman just ship me the tab so I don't have to cut them off and notch around the leftover base. Coleman makes nice stuff to jigs so better to sleeve it than go from scratch in my garage. Will be rigid as heck doubled up.
