Chasssis Problem
Hi
Was working on my chassis last night and found a bit of a problem. I found that TR9 is out of line. By 36mm on the passenger side. Will this cause any problems later in the build or can i work around it? The chassis is fully tig welded so want to avoid cutting it out. Would appreciate any ideas you may have thanks

If you do have to repair it by cutting it out weld a brace to the chassis otherwise it moves under the stress as I found out the hard way.
Good luck. |

I know you don,t really want to hear this, but .....
with it being 36mm & not 3.6mm out of line I personally would cut it out & replace to the correct dimensions, & if you do, then before you cut it out tack in a brace to avoid the chassis distorting. Sorry, I don,t wish to sound like a "kill joy" but a 36mm error is alot. cheers andy |
