I see you have the HTP Invertig welder. I just ordered their new 221. Can't wait to start paying myself $50 an hour to weld now. Great work man.

Dude, we don't hang out or know each other at all, but we should hang out sometime cause you do things the way I do (the only way in my book) - THE RIGHT WAY. Best of luck completing your project. Your documentation is amazing. You should really be proud of yourself.

Update!

I decided to tackle the rear subframe and get some things out of the way. I dropped the rear subframe and proceeded to completely disassemble it. I scrubbed and power-washed the subframe for hours as it was caked with grime. Once it was clean I decided to paint it with POR15 to prevent it from ever rusting again. While the paint was drying I addressed the differential. I chose to shim my J30 differential for increased locking. When the subframe was dry I painted it with a base coat/clear coat. Then I removed the polyurethane bushings and dropped in the aluminum bushings that I machined. On to the pics!













Welded nuts onto fill and drain plugs...So much easier.






More to come.

Sorry for the lack of updates, been swamped with work for customers. I designed and fabricated some S14 crash bars that mount in the stock location. They are incredibly strong and fit like a glove! Here are some pictures!













Then stumbled upon this Bengali Prince at the shop, look at that satin shirt just exuding excellence

Decided to practice working with some aluminum bits yesterday. Whipped up a new catch can, plumbed it for AN-6 fittings. Thinking about making a run of these if there is enough interest. Enjoy!
