Got a bit more done over the weekend. Ran the front suspensions thru jounce and rebound and full L/R lock. Laid out the final positions for the steering stops and got those tacked in.
After grinding the paint off I marked the positions with black felt pen.

Checking the positioning and making sure everything is in the right spot. This is the passenger side as the frame is upside down on the rotisserie.

This is the driver side front stop tacked on.

I will pull the spindles out to finish the welding. I had everything wrapped in welding blankets while tacking but I didn't want to put that kind of heat into the blankets.

I probably should have rounded those corners over before I tacked them on... Oh well the big grinder will get a work out.
