    MrBeggins - what size welding wire did you use on your wheel well chop?
    I used. 030 on the P-Side but thinking of dropping down to. 024 to eliminate some of the excess build up.

    Hahah it's funny you ask that!! I started using 30 then ran out, picked up some 24 and my god was it so much easier. The passenger side looks like butter. I just cleaned everything up with the flap disk after anyways. But yes. .024 worked much better

    good luck with the rolled fender look. Knowing your current skill set and how damn hard it would be to make it look good with sliced tabs..have fun haha



    Truck is looking good paul!


    as for crawl box, im a bit shocked your wanting one with the auto. But cool!

    Pretty sure inchworm and Marlin are basically the same now. They use parts from each other so really..shouldn't matter too much.

    ok maybe you took that wrong? Not sure what the deal is, but because i know what a reciprocating saw is, and i would have thought there would be a way to get a more precise cut on the firewall. I am asking because I have done it, so i dont know how well it works and how it turns out. When i say "hacky" i was implying that it might leave a jagged edge. Take a chill pill.
    wow, funny. he seems to have confirmed what I thought about the saw. imagine that :rolleyes:
