I can think of a couple ways to fix this. Can i hear more ideas?
You can see that there are 4 weld impressions. 3 have pulled a hole in the firewall. |

looks like cary's combo idea might be the way to go. I was planning on leaving the bolt, but this area of the firewall is doubled. So i can't cinch the bolt down tight like I wanted to do since it is double walled. Everything will collapse. everything below the visible tack welds is single wall.
Damn. When my kids sell the car, I will tell them to blame it on the PO. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |
