Quick mini tub question

[dustya_383]

After you cut tub out and have all that excess metal to cut back to frame rail. Do you cut the lip off of the frame rail and maqke it completly flush or do you stop at the lip I just got the tub out and starting cutting back to frame but stopped cause I wasn't sure. Thanks in advance

Cut the lip off, weld the top edge back together, set the tub on top of the rail, tack it on there.

Give you a little extra room.

Im doing my conv. Its a lot easier than i thought just takes time to do it right. Lot more welding than you think once you get crackin on it.

Agreed. There was a LOT more welding than I thought there would be. I went through a tank of welding gas very quickly doing my tubs.
