Project P.I.T.A. -SOLD---no more updates.

Well got to work on her more today. I am almost done prepping the driver side for welding. The passenger side is ready. Just need a friggin welder. I know these are prolly pretty basic but oh well like I said before...I plan on documenting almost every step of this project.
Let me know what you think.
Pass side LCA- ready for the plate and welding

Finally the ever popular wheel on with no tire but still tucked. This is just about maxed out. Has 1/4" clearance in the wheel well with out being cut. Should lay frame with a 205/40R16 tire measuring 22 1/2" diameter.

very cool

progress looks good man. i like how you cut the lcas and the plate fits flat on it. and the hole doubles for a way to get the bolt for the bag in. i wish i would have done mine like that.

You got that Dawg layin the front X-member yet? -ED

Not yet...already have almost 60 hours...in 4 days. Gotta love having work. Any ways I have done some grinding tonight and will be welding the driver side up tomorrow.

Very nice work, I am impressed by your thoughts on the detail. -ED

arms look great man. are you gonna put another hole in the bottom to get the bolt in for the bag?

You know I thought about it but I am able to get my hand and a wrench into the arm so I may not. I am wanting to keep the two whole for the strut brace as they may become the new mounting spot for the sway mounts. With Dev's help I am going to triangulate my arms similar too Josh's and mount my shock to the new piece as Josh has planned to do. I still need to do some smoothing on that arm and weld up and smooth the other one as well. we shall see....

Looks great man I like the step by step progress.

Jeff - LCA is looking great! Great attention to detail. I like the removal of the torsion bar attachment - very nice.
