I knew i was taking a bit of a risk welding the top half then cutting the tacks to do the underside. Really had no choice as it is just too tight under there. Think I got her too hot and heard a pop-ting while doing the upper side, but couldn't find a tack or anything that had moved. I was even trying to be patient and running about 1/4 of a tube bead then moving to the opposite tube and doing the same. Cut the tacks and sure enough, the left side tubes sprung down on me. Finished the welds off anyway. Doesn't want to sit back correct, looks like i need to break the "rules" and partially weld the right lower tube and apply some heat and pulling power and "pivot" it into place.
