    Man it is hard to weld upside down. Your welds look fine. I know how hard you tried to get to the roundup this year. In 04 I am looking forward seeing all your go fast goodies live and in person. The pics themself are impressive.

    the close ups are the upper shock mounts, welded to the rear subframe, just above the rear tires on the inside of the frame.
