Re: Front side frame rust repair

Wow, that was some work and very nice welds!
Any pictures of how the parts was fitted before the welding?

Thanks, see my post of 30/4; here you can see that I put a threaded bar through the front crossmember and use a number of clamps and supporting section of steel bar to line everything up before the tag welds.
Of course lots of measuring before I could start the welds, but I'm happy with the result.

After all the welds, the frame will be preserved again, probably with some Mike Saunders wax.
