copied from my build thread

where im at

no turning back now :affraid:

My tyres were scrubbing on the inner arch obviously hence the tubbing but something harder to solve was that the tyre was catching the underside of the wing 'truss'

So i supported the front of the car to stop any 'sag' while i started modifying it.
I cut in hard:

folded it back so i could get to the back of it and cut it off.
Cut to size a peice of 1.5m, tacked one end then bent to follow the curve and tacked in place:


Then once it was secure i welded it in, thoroughly, seeing as its structural. Dont mind the dog shit welds, i was upside down looking up with the sky in the background which meant i could see fark ALL

from the side:

New clearance, im well happy with that:

Anyway, back to the tubs:
The general idea:

I cut along the length of the arch to get rid of the curve back inwards towards the tire, il weld a strip in its place for maximum room:


Put the pipe on to see how much room i could claim before fouling the pipes, plenty:


After teaking and trimming before i knew it it was 9:15, i couldnt carry on grinding so just made some rough templates for me to work with tomorrow:

More tomorrow
