Thumbs up

Been reworking the flanges on the mini tubs .... I didn't like the idea of clamping the tub over to the inside to make up the gap (close to 5/16") and then welding the tub under tension. So I flattened the flange, re-drew and made the flange where I needed it to be .... now I have a tub that is 2.75" through out the arc of the tub.

Take a look at the drivers side that has been reworked and re-flanged to make up the gap .... AND the flange is nice and crisp @ 90 w/o that 3/8 roll that came with the tub. Killed two birds with one body hammer and dolly


The black sharpie line was the old flange line ... moved it over a bit!

That's how they should be stamped!

The sharper bend will close that gap between the inner and outer wheel house and look way better w/o 1/2" seam sealer .... yes?

Getting there ..... little more hammer and dolly work and then the welder comes out

Thanks for looking .....
