Front Frame Extension Part 2

Front Frame Extension Part 2This is the last time I am going to spend time looking for Sharpies, my MIG pliers or the ground strap. See graph paper to line it all up….you know the funny thing is I mounted it backwards…..the back side is fully welded and ground down….I guess I just have to grind some more.

Woo hoo – never put a grinder with a cut off wheel in the hands of a 55 year old….looks like the bottom of the frame horn is tweaked slightly.

I took many photos of hood gap for reference pictures.

Removed the old frame extension.

Compared it to the new one and they line up where they should and are different where I would expect them to be. Made some imaginary cut lines way forward of where I think I am going to splice them.

And then made a different cut line even more ahead of those.

Spent a few more minutes fitting the frame extension. I just had to hammer down one of the front frame horns a few mm’s took about 3 hammer swings to get it right…time to contemplate the next move.
