Went to work and removed the strut to give me access to the last bit of welding i need to do, basically a seam inside the strut 'tunnel'? I can't think of the word :?

Anyway I'll weld it tomorrow then spray them Stone chip the whole area then red spray and put it all back together, fingers crossed we'll be finished very soon 8)

That's the welding officially finished 8) I'm covered in burns from trying to get my head in the turret to see where to weld :? There was a bit of a gap so i got a corner strip and i welded first then either side of the strip, just in case there's a high speed cop chase that requires a jump off some kind of improvised ramp :shock: :lol:
Not necessary tbh but i prefer to overkill a little just to remove any doubt (even tho i don't think this is structural but was 3 spot welds originally sandwiched 3 plates and the outer has a solid weld all the way up)

All primed in alu zinc spray, just need to caulk on sealant, paint on sealant, mask around then shutz everywhere then spray over it :-)

Be glad when i don't need to mess underneath the bloody thing.
