[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16462227, member: 70025"] Hello Everyone, Well, I left off with trying to clean up the outer firewall area in order to prep it for my torque box installation. Well, that's what I got completed this weekend. Some of you may be thinking that's all I got done in two days. LOL, well all I can say is I'm new to this and I take a methodical approach to the job. I need to make sure I cut the metal properly in order to make sure it fits snug and correct. Remember I'm a rookie when it comes to metal work. So, I'm going slow and steady and will get there eventually LOL. Torque boxes come welded together. I seen a guy on YouTube (Jo Daddy's garage) and he separated the boxes prior to install. After doing this I don't see how these can be installed without separating them. [ATTACH=full]1654173[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1654174[/ATTACH] Got the outer firewall area all cleaned up. Man, that undercoating is a B!T(# to get off LOL. [ATTACH=full]1654175[/ATTACH] Got the area sprayed with weld thru primer to protect the metal. [ATTACH=full]1654176[/ATTACH] Got the backing plate trimmed and mocked up. [ATTACH=full]1654177[/ATTACH] Got the backing plate welded in place and covered with weld thru primer.[ATTACH=full]1654178[/ATTACH] Got the outer box trimmed and mocked up. [ATTACH=full]1654179[/ATTACH] Outer box welded into place. [ATTACH=full]1654180[/ATTACH] It was the same process for the passenger side, so here is a picture of the final result.
