Finally started dewin werk today. Got all the rust cut out, patched the frame, fixed the rusted pedal assembly brackets/mounts, installed the lift kit and wheels. I feel like we did something else significant but I can't even think right now.OH YEAH, installed the heavy duty coils to the rear shocks. Had to put our thinkers on and my dad came up with this idea for compressing the shock...I know how I will be rebuilding my dirt sicle shocks when need be
We started off our rust extravaganza with it looking like this...
then my pops was all look at me I'm a welder.
then we were all WOOH, FLIP THAT SHIT OVER AGAIN
And it ended up looking like this when we left, those rusty brackets you see running horizontal across the pictures are just old floor frame brackets we haven't cut off because we are using them as a template
My dads patch job on the frame. I've got to tell you, I was skeptical at first but it came out nice and it's sturdy as chit. Wraps a little more then half way around the frame tube and is welded all the way around.
And last but not least a picture so y'all can see it new height. Blurry as crap but that's life.
