It took 3 different attempts over two nights at an upper shock mount tube, but finally got it set where i want it last night. Do i overuse the word fiddly??? wonder why LOL .. more little bits for gussets since the box tube was only touching the tubes in 2 places. Once the other side is installed, i'll put a piece of round tube between them and back-brace that to the frame, turning my 6-tube juncture into a 7 tube juncture
.
Beefed up the heim tube/bung in the control arm. while it just looks like a dogpile of welds, there's a piece of 1/8th wall 1.5 round tube overlaid around the bung. Still have to do the same to the other side and trim the tube end off for shock clearance.
