frame shortening

Post by capt'nben »

Well the Durango has been shortened! we cut 5" out of the frame just aft of the torshn bar anchor cross member, took the 5" piece that we cut out on each side and cut 1/4" out of each side top and bottom to make a plug that fit inside the frame rails these were rosette welded into the rear half of the frame then inserted into the front rails.
Drive shaft will go to the drive shaft shop tomarrow to be shortened and we will be ready to start fitting the old Ford pickup body
