They cut the bottom of the plate off! So it has no bottom nut but they did drill the hole?? Go figure?
Thanks Brad, I just wanted to see the photo you took after the bracket was complete and welded in place! Jeff |

Here is another pic (showing the same) that Andy just posted in another thread...
(IMG:http://www.sirandy.com/pix/914/2003.04.17/IMGP1729.jpg) Instead of welding, you can glue the plate in with sumtin' like duramix That'll save you a lot of mess (burning paint and undercoating off in the wheel wells) cheers, Jeroen |

That one doesn't look welded in! Can I get away with that without welding? I don't have a welder and everything is out of the car now! That plate looks bigger than the one on mine!

I welded Jenny's because it was a stock bar and they dont come with a backing plate. Basically I build exactly what you see in Andy's pic (not that nice tho..lol)

Not if you have the back plate like what you have. I personally still 'tack' them in on the corners..

Well ain't that sumpin!!! I actually did somupin right! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) I thought the stock bars came with a back plate & figured that I didn't get the used plate cuz it was still welded to the original car from whence mine came... so I made one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) COOL! that makes me feel even better now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

I just did mine this weekend. Lots of fun with the die grinder making the opening to fit the bottom part of the plate in there.
