A few pics to show whats involved in fixing the suspension ear in the hell hole. now I know why Brad charges $1500.00 to fix. $395.00 worth of parts from design restoration.

It shows that it had been repaired before in the same place. Untill I removed the motor I had no idea that it had this much rust. Check your area carefully as it could hurt if it failed at the wrong time. It will be as good as new when we are done.

Bernie, I'll be doing the same procedure in a couple of months, please describe, in detail, the process you're doing. Also, post pics larger, if you can. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Looking good.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Good job so far! Don't you just love welding in those sort of places? I had to do some repairs on my race car and it sure is a pain to weld upside down!

I agree, bigger pics. 640x480 minimum. Unfortunately, even with higher resolution monitors, 640x480 look like postage stamps.

Bernie, did you order the ear and the engine shelf from design-restorations?

Other than drilling out the spot welds on the bad ear and engine shelf was there any 'fab' work you needed to do?

Thanks again for the post and increasing the pic size.

Thanks for the pics & update.

more pics on the install of the ear Battery box and seal
my sons did the work we were a little short on electricty as we had to drag it about 75 feet with a large extension cord. that made it hard to get a good flow with our welder.
more pics to follow
