boss:
not really an update, im just really happy with the weld quality i got from my sealy welder. 15mins of TLC did it the world of good.....only problem is i only get 6mins @150amps  :'( trying to buy a migatronic but miganglia are messing me around abit(alot :evil:) might just get a TIG



welding quality isnt great at the moment, havnt welded properley in aaaages! also the 3/4 length cast on my arm doesnt help  :lol:













really not sure on how to plate the top up though. not sure weather i should just box it in and put a square plate at the back or slope it down to make it look an integral part of the chassis....but that would take a little more work.


any thoughts?


any way im pleased with the welds(bit of a make or brake moment) looks better that the welds on the 90 trayback in lrm atleast
 :roll:

 that does sound good dude slope it down to make it look like part of the chassis just 1 of those lil touches that make all the difference . . .

 and then put a flat plate over the top to cover it all up should look pukka dude

boss:
it doesnt need to be cut or sloped really. the chassis sort of slopes down after the spring seats so i can use the  loooooooooong plate supplied with the mount plonk it on top of the welded bits and it will eventially meet the chassis i jsut need to cut a few more brackets off which i really dont want to do becasue the mounting holes could be handy. ill see what springs to mind tomorow.

mikiep1986:
 hmmmm well which ever is easier i suppose lol . . .and as u got the loooooooooooong plate may aswell use it lol

boss:
my thoughts exactly :lol:


got a super long piece of 6mm plate too....about 7.5m but only 2" wide :doh:
