[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16450162, member: 70025"] Okay everyone, Since it was the 4th of July weekend I was able to make some pretty good progress. First I finished up the frame rails where the new cross member and shock mounts will be mounted. I consider these pieces the main structural parts since they hold the motor and my front suspension. So, I took my time and tried to get my welds deeply penetrated to ensure it will not break or come apart. Drivers side frame rail notched for shock mount. [ATTACH=full]1650215[/ATTACH] Passenger side mocked up for notching. [ATTACH=full]1650216[/ATTACH] Notch created for passenger side shock mount. [ATTACH=full]1650217[/ATTACH] Frame rails ready for cross member and shock mounts to be mocked up. [ATTACH=full]1650218[/ATTACH] Cross member and shock mounts mocked up. All measurements have been verified and using angle iron to ensure the shock mounts are level to the car and each other. [ATTACH=full]1650219[/ATTACH] The camera isn't straight, but the level bubble is...……. [ATTACH=full]1650220[/ATTACH] Here the cross member and shock mounts have been tack welded into place. [ATTACH=full]1650221[/ATTACH] Passenger side initial spot welds and grinding completed. [ATTACH=full]1650222[/ATTACH] Drivers side initial spot welds and grinding completed.
