so today is the day i started the path of no return... start with one plain ol stock perfectly good 80 rear bumper.
add a healthy dose of caffeine, impact driver, cutoff wheels and a sawzall...
still time to turn back.
last chance,
Enter sawzall and cutoff discs for those factory welds on the crossmember...
ok now it's more difficult, and that looks quite permanent,
very permanent...
all cleaned up and ready to build. LOOK AT ALL THAT ROOM under there!
begin wrestling with shells and wings... oh and off come the flares...
add more bits for fit check
running out of steam for the day, just about ready for tacking, better walk away before i do soemthing dumb.
about 4 hours total to this point, 2 hours to unbolt, cut grind and repaint the frame ends, and a couple hours wrestling with shells, taking off flares, and chasing my tail...
to be continued...
