    Using that cutouts tobox in those cut sections is a great idea👍
    The frame will be stronger then before the modification.

    I’ve been watching the build from the beginning and I just noticed I hadn’t subscribe yet! Wowzer! So I smashed that button really good and fixed that problem. That being said you might want to check and make sure it still works! At least remind everyone watching to make sure it works when they hit it! 😆keep up the good work!

    Mike, #weird beard, in the UK, if you repair a car by cutting it and putting two parts together, it's called a cut and shut and is illegal if you get caught. You can face up to 15 years in prison 😢 don't ask how I know 😊😊

  • @workingmansrestorations7071
    @workingmansrestorations7071 10 місяців тому

    Lots of different ways to shorten and lengthen frame... the chevy dealer would have cut straight... when I do mine I do them straight... everyone will argue which is better.

    Welding the box section you had the Wire speed dialed in better. I knew you would change it after you started. I am not a professional welder anymore but when you first started welding after you cut the chassis the wire speed was off and making me cringe😂 Great video once again Mike.

    Beard I don’t if I’ve said this yet but I appreciate you making content that I can sit down with my wife and daughter and watch. It is so hard to sit down after a long day and spend time with the family watching something that is mega sexually charged in some way or filled with vulgar language.
