Looking under Yellr's skirt...
Rus is going to remove&replace the part in the yellow, clean it all out behind and up along the frame, then address the crack in red (drill pilot at head of crack) clean the crack and weld it - then on to making a plate to reinforce the area up past the crack.
Rus used the descaling needles to clean up a lot in that small area - can see the channel separating from the frame down low after knocking off loose stuff. Lots of metal gone. I will post more pictures of the carnage.
Then on the outside of frame - secure the spring perch that cantilevers out to the frame for added strength.
So ask me, "There is more of the inner channel that is separating on the frame moving left, why not do that too?"
There is more of the inner channel that is separating on the frame moving left, why not do that too? - Well I am glad you asked. There is more that needs to be removed to include the TC/Transmission and my goal is a 5 speed (been talking to Georg about it all a couple weeks ago) and when that time arrives, will have more out so that it all can be resolved at that time. This is phase one.
