When I did mine I used a soldering iron. Put the heat right on the tab.

I understand that it was used in production for different applications. But for what he is doing it’s not.

You guys are doing a great job. Keep it up.

Welcome Bruce. Throw up a post in the New Member section and let us know what your looking for.

Welcome Bob. Don’t worry about the condition of the car for your post. A lot of us have started with worse and honestly yours doesn’t look too bad. Good luck and keep posting. One person can’t answer every question but the collective group can. Someone has been there and done that.

I’m not 100 percent sure but I would believe it is spot welded. Look for seam sealer on the inside.

When Ron and I talked he suggested more lube , my thought was it’s a brand new assembly and should be somewhat lubed when it was manufactured so i immediately went to the lock rod, bent, wrong side or something like that.

Before I’m dead and buried I’m going to request that I go straight down like a spear and leave my feet sticking out of the ground. For proof. lol. 😝

Congratulations on the fifth. Hope for many more.

Another Ohio member. Welcome

Welcome Bob. Thank you. I hope you get as much out of this group as I have.

Absolutely not. My feet look much better. lol. 😂

It’s put away until Carlisle. Of course it could make an appearance in Somerset. lol.

Actually that was unintentional, as in most cases but it seems they always make it when I’m looking down for a picture. But I’d rather have pictures with my feet than my mug. lol. 😂

Trust me when I say it happens to all of us.
