deja Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Wow that is some quick delivery, I ordered them on Monday. I spent most of the day getting rid of undercoating, what a mess. Thankfully its old and mostly came off with a twisted steel brush on my angle grinder. I also had to beat some bumps on my old crunched rails back so the new rails will fit. It will still take some "force" to fit them over the old ones but I guess that's a good thing. Now to recruit a good welder, LOL. BTW I was surprised to see the floor was spot welded to the rails, granted there are a lot of spot welds. I kind of expected to see a continuous seam. But I guess they don't build production cars that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, and that's why I didn't worry about having the entire frame rail absolutely sealed to the bottom of the floor. They didn't even attempt to do that the first time around...
