Re: I haven't got a crew......

G'day All,

It has been a little while since updating, but had a pretty good run on the crew last friday night.

Continuing on with my desire to install the Jaguar IFS as a complete bolt in unit, I waited until I had advice on the size material that the authorizing engineer wanted me to use for the c-notch in the front of the chassis. That info came through on thursday. so come friday afternoon I broke out the template and crayons and embarked on slicing up some 1/4 plate for the notch.
Here's the concept:

The engineer wanted some overlapping and plug welds so I have also partially boxed the frame with the same plate so a I cut and shaped some plate for thet as well. I intend to completely box the whole frame but will reduce the material down to 1/8th plate for the majority of it.
