1JZKe55 Posted January 7, 2010 Author Report Posted January 7, 2010 question... when you cut out the floor did the car not wanna twist or anything??so after all this the chassis is still straight as? Na it wasn't to bad i tacked a couple braces in to help hold it all in place when we were cutting everything out The chassis is made out of 75x50x2.5mm so yeah its still straight lol gave myself a tolerance of + - 1.5mm to work with in Quote
1JZKe55 Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Posted January 17, 2010 its been long day's stripping it back to bare metal Quote
67Rolla-Ken Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 Lookin good. I've been using a bead blaster at work, they're fantastic! :dance: Quote
SLO-030 Posted January 17, 2010 Report Posted January 17, 2010 so yeah its still straight lol gave myself a tolerance of + - 1.5mm to work with in I have a mate who used to fit the train wheels to landcruisers to allow them to run on train tracks. Some land crusiers (brand new ones) were up to 25mm out diagonally. We're not talking 70/80's cruisers, more like late 90's/early 00's :dance: Anyways, stripping looks good. That firewall recess is massive. Great job mate. Quote
