For the driver's side, is the general practice to remove the P-brake handle resting post or relieve the Engman panel and leave the post in place?
Also, I've read a couple opinions about how much "spread" to introduce to the door way to allow for shrinkage after the tub cools down--and to compensate for sag in the body once it's back on its wheels. What's my best strategy? |

QUOTE(TargaToy @ Feb 12 2011, 11:14 AM)  What's my best strategy? Brace the chassis (and double check the gaps!) before you start welding and you should be fine. Move around when welding so you don't introduce too much heat in one spot. As for the handbrake post, i would modify the kit if needed to allow for the post to remain.
