Bah... Everything on the arms themselves is TIG... the "jigs" if you want to call them that is all MIG .I dont know the series of the welders but they are Lincoln... I believe up to 185.

I sandblasted the weld zones and then did the welding and then sandblasted it as a unit (w/o the heim joints of course). Then ran the tap back through the threadded ends to clean them out again because of shrinking some from the welding.

You still in Jersey? Maby Ill let you ride shotty some time haha (especially since there isn't going to be a rear seat... there is no leg room for one. However the rear will be "finished" inside. I'll probably drill out the spot welds for the rear seat backrest at a later date... probably around the same time I finish the hole in the floor.


I started the lower control arms today... they should be done sometime on Wednesday. I picked the 4 jam nuts and heim joints up today... tomorrow I'll be getting more tubing to continue on after I finish fabbing up the plates and sleeve for the lower ball joints to be pressed into.
