The front was a little harder to notch.

I tried to weld in some nuts, that didn't go so well so I'm going to cut them off and just attach it with nuts that aren't welded on.

Well I tacked all this stuff onto the frame, and it all fits! I'll be grinding off the excess after its finished welding

Finished all the hole cutting and welded these, I'm not super excited about my welding but its getting a lot better.

Tacked these onto the frame, and they fit pretty good.

The rear upper trailing arm braces need to be installed in pieces so there is still one part not in the picture yet.

Both those fit and should be easy to finish weld soon.

This is the paint I finally settled on. I've used the brush on kind from Eastwood before and I'm really happy with it. Now that I have a hvlp gun and compressor I can spray this, so I'm hoping it'll be even more durable being two parts.

The frame is fully welded, I'll just need to grind a couple spots and its all ready to paint.

I'm getting pretty good at welding, I guess all this practice is paying off.

I'm going to try and weld up a nice triangular brace for the front, I've got these factory bars but I think I'd rather not cut one up if I can just use a section of new pipe. You can't run all 3 at once unfortunately (that would be too easy).

I just got a new piece for the cross bar instead of cutting the hard to find stock piece.

Welded a few gussets so that the bars would stay in place when I remove the brace.

I tried to mount the hose in the stock location on the 9" so I used some scrap aluminum.

This was my first attempt at bending and flaring lines and I'm pretty happy with how it came out. I'll probably switch out the zip ties for hose clamps in the future to hold the lines to the housing.

It was below freezing and I spend about 3 hours out in the garage to get the rear suspension back in the car.

I decided to go with a Wilwood front and rear disc proportioning valve with a built in rear disc bias adjuster. I also installed a line lock, because I've always wanted one and this really is the perfect time to plumb one in.

Started on the fuel system as well, I think I'm going to run some hard line to the front from the filter but I'm just going run -AN lines to the tank.

Threw my spare wheels on the frame just so it'd fit better on the movers dollies.

I just wait it out if I can...none of my cars are really suited for this type of weather.

I think my weld had good penetration and I think this will work out fine.
