Hehehehe

I wanna be this skilled

Rear diff cover done and a frame mount done


Yes it is level



Ill send them for shotblasting tomorrow and hopefully have them ready for shafts on wednesday

That's some daub style welding if I ever did see it

Shes beefy contemplating wekding a plate under the diff but I might make a bolt on one like yours sam that will help protect the prop too

That bung went in well. I assume you got it centered. Looks like stick weld.
how did you bend the pan?

Yeah took me almost half an hour to get it centred, I got it to within 2mm straight away that last bit was a pita haha

Yeah bung works well just gotta hope its right as its not coning off now

Nahh just thick ass mig, pushing about 180 amps into it shes well penetrated, I veed the sides too so its quite a wide weld

The main bit of the pan was 8mm 9 inch tube that we had lying around the side parts are 6mm that I bemt with a combination of the press and artistic use of a hammer
