    I want to be able to measure how far out they are. They must come from the factory with some variation.

    kind of tricky defining what they should be an nominal and how far out is ok.

    I’ll get a list and pics tomorrow. I tried to get the 3rd brake light off my shell for you, cracked it, it was stuck on with double sided tape back and bottom.


    I got a pair on Amazon cheap so I could keep mine.
    Buy a pair, make the jigs and send them back. They give you like 30 days

    I'd say standard cast UOS should be used for the forgings. +/- .030 or +/-.050. Hole true position of .005 or .010

    Yeah I gotta see how they would get bent in the truck and just see how they would get bent if they warped while welding. The latter is simple.

    That’s a good call right there. Didn’t even think about it. I do want a set of donors anyways too. Maybe would be better to build the jig on a pair of freshies
