3/4" BOLT
|
|
<--- Axle Mtg Screws --->
|
|
When I cut off the rusted
FH, I left about 8" extend past the firewall. This will allow me to 'slip' on the new one on. It's amazing what a 'Sawzall' can do. |
|
After welding, I primed
everything and topcoated with a 'high performance' enamel, chemically resistant, etc. I don't want to see any rust here EVER! |
|
When I slipped on the new FH, I
reattached the axle to the FH and then used the 2 upper axle mounting screws to line everything up. Then I drilled for the 3/4" nut & bolt, which I used to hold the FH for welding. The axle mounting screws are what aligned everything. The body being on help. |
