[QUOTE="ttocs, post: 1481382, member: 11896"] After getting the drivers side set up and tacked in place I thought that the pass side might go a little easier now that I had the settings and speed for the welding. I forgot that the passenger side had the slightest bend in it that I knew would pose a bit of a challenge. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/ZOMOR2i.jpg[/IMG] today I got back under it and I was trying to make that slight bend in the coupler and it seemed no matter how I tried this is as close as I got. I thought I had screwed up. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/D39bQeg.jpg[/IMG] This was after a couple of hours of trim a little and see if it would fit. Trim a little more and try again and repeat 50 times. I finally realized that coupler was not going to work and I had to get another. This time I trimmed some of it away and then used the tubes I cut off(shown above) to clamp on and then carefully bent/banged them into place. I figured that this would be another couple of hours of trim/fit game above but to my amazement I got under the car and slit them together and viola, it fuckin fit........ [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/2i4pV0T.jpg[/IMG] I tacked that in place and tomorrow its ready to be removed and I can finish the welding on all of it but the good news is that the x-pipe is out of the way and I can move to the trans.
