Thanks Kev for the advice. I hope your feeling well.
I not a very skilled welder so my thoughts were, get it tacked in place and then send it out to get it professionaly welded. Another idea is my father-in-law is a PW so I may see if I can bribe him with some beer :cheers: or at least, I hope to get some good lessons out of him.
Progress report: I finally got all the unnecessary brakets cut off. What a job! I spent hours and hours of grinding, cutting and air chiseling. I guess the PO didn't trust the stock rivets, or maybe he got a new stick welder with an endless supply of rod for christmas. He went to town with his welder laying heavy welds on everything some that measured 3/4" wide and tall :shock: :evil: . I will be picking up the steel at the end of the week so I can start the frame extension and boxing in the frame. LET THE FAB BEGIN!
I am thinking about making my own spring mounts out of 4x4 tube steel. I've been told that this is do-able. Any thoughts?!
I'll get some pic's up this weekend.
