Frame building snag!!!
Hey guys;
Ran in to a snag today building the 65 Ranchero frame.
Had everything squared up on the bed of the frame,
And about a week ago welded in a cross member for the rearend to hook springs to.
Well I only went ¾ of the way around the frame leaving the bottom weld till after I could roll the frame over to weld it. So today I rolled the frame over and welded it.
Just one little weld on each side of the cross member
Or just ¼ on each end of the cross member. Went in the house come back out after lunch, the thing twisted the left corner of the frame down 1in. after it had cooled down. Now the question is do I cut the cross member back out or try to heat it up to straiten it???
Guess I see tomarrow when I tackle that problem.
