4 speed bracket question (now with pics)
« on: March 15, 2009 - 12:45:56 PM »
Ok here's pics of the bracket sitting in place.  Can a welder get to this or should I remove the header etc?  Thanks

Alan did my welding and he did it from the top with the exhaust in. it is a pain with little space but probably easier from the top and through the wheel well.

I think I would take out everything you can so you don't get any welding splatter on it.

make it easy on your self, pull back the steering column and the propotioning valve, at least then you can get a good weld along the side,
