Default wierd question for installing SFCs

I want to install my weld in UMI SFCs, but i dont have much space in my garage. I can easily do one side, but the other will be tough to weld due to the limited space. Can i weld on one side and then take the car down (ramps under the front wheels, jackstands under the axle, car level) pull it out of the garage and turn it around so i could do the other side? would that be bad to have one side with a subframe connector and the otherside without for a minute while drive?

^ Good point. Well, phone UMI. I don't think it would matter, since you're just reversing the car. Just ensure the suspension is loaded & car is level.

Yeah it won't matter as long as you finish one side completely before you move the car. You should be fine doing that.

There is no problem doing it that way, you just don't want to weld anything without the suspension loaded.
