  1. Thought it was going to be an easy week till the pass side fuel tank started to leak from under the strap.

    didn't see any corrosion. Well the last guy cleaned it up and put some kind of epoxy under the straps. Pulled it all apart had strip welded in then had them rhino lined.

    All the step brackets were rusted out under the straps. Cut the top ones apart and welded in stainless strip.

    not so east on the bottom so I sand blasted them an dunked them in por15.

    Made the front step bracket out of 3/16 aluminum. New rubber blocks up front and coated all the metal. A lot of BS so it doesn't rust apart in a year.

  2. Walter's spinning in his grave. Bunch of crap. Just like Volvo the love the the heritage of these companies but do nothing to support it and the hobby. The bean counters are mostly to blame and then the ceo's have no balls to say do it any way.
