Thread: attaching steering column to dash..

Tweet

I don't usually have enough pictures to download at any one time to worry too much about speed, but those are interesting. come to think of it I have no idea why I have never used the slot in my laptop to slide the memory card right into if my new one has it i'll have to try that

I give up on the pictures for right now...the pictures were showing now its just red x's

More advice. Whether you want it or not

Many of us use Photobucket (free!!!!)as our storage and posting site. They are easy to use but they keep changing their format just to confuse folks. The nice part is you can load massive size pictures and it resizes them to fit forums and email. One bad side - if you move or delete a picture from there, it disappears on-line (and then of course someone sends you a p===y email to reload)

yea I already had a webshots account and have used it some in the past for posting pics in forums, but no luck this time. I was even trying to post other pictures on another forum and that didn't work either. webshots no more for me...I'll try it posting somewhere else later. I even tried to just delete my post last night, but I didn't see an option for it??

took the time to become a photobucket member so here we go...a couple pics. i started taking the dash out to weld the tabs and then remembered to take the pics. I never added a third support angled up to the firewall, but for now it seems pretty solid

[Deleted my original post]

That looks good -- are you going to weld the bracing in place or just bolt? If you weld in, you might like square tubing better then the angle
I originally tried angle, but liked the square better - I used round to reinforce much of the rest of the body

should be good now? i resized them smaller than i wanted and couldn't figure out how to resize them again after they were saved. so i just deleted them and uploaded them again..

just bolts because i want to be able to remove the dash still...i could weld it to the firewall and bolt to the dash, but the bolts seem fine. so the angle iron works ok...besides that's all I have on hand

You don't need to resize them to download into Photobucket. It will store them at whatever and all you need to do is copy the Image Code to put them here. The quality does seem to suffer there tho

I downloaded them and then used their handy 'resize button, but it seems like they would have been an ok size anyway. thanks for your help
