In this video the 69 Chevelle had some sway bar mounting issues with the bolts pulling out. Back in the 70s the dealership did a little frame modification that needed to be fixed. I just up sized the swaybar mount bolts and welded up the hackery done by the dealership in the 70s

The dealership that did that repair should be ashamed... zero pride in their work

that little belt sander is the trick

@seaglider844 Год назад

You've brought out the little belt sander again in the last couple of vids.....I was getting worried you'd abandoned it. 😁

Great job! I was relieved to see that the stick magnet got removed from the harmonic balancer by the end. :)

had a 375 hp chevelle new in 1969 , wanted a blue one , only had gold ...tony

The original sway bar brackets were held in by relatively small self tapping bolts, which can tear out . I’ll bet that’s what happened and the dealership cut that hole to repair it with a nut and a bolt. If you modify your suspension and or there is any rust in there that can happen easily.

@deltabloo Год назад

@@michaelefournier I found that the area was weakened due to rust and abuse, so i cut out the area, and welded in a plate then another plate to fill the hole, essentially doubling the thickness, then drilled and threaded new holes. If that fails i will have to revisit the problem. I would probably make access holes and use nuts bolts and washers.

Overhead welding in flip flops? Brave man!

@br549200 Год назад

Are there no gloves in California? I always regret welding with no gloves.

The trick is a quick spray of antispatter on the feet.

“Welding” a term used very loosely in this video. 😜

Of course this is a like able video. 😊

@TargaWheels Год назад

Do you disconnect the battery when you weld on the frame? Just wondering. I've done both connected and disconnected. Never had a problem either way.

@stacks_and_setbacks Год назад

Lucky, did you do a video on that 4x4 "Highboy" in the background?

@macho4x4warlock98 Год назад

Lucky, I don’t understand the coil overs in the rear of this Chevelle. What was wrong with the factory coil over axle configuration? The rear mounts on shocks brackets were not designed to hold the rear car weight. They were only designed for mounting of the dampeners. What do you think?

@timnielsen964 Год назад

Is that Friebergers f 250 in the background?

@thecontrarian9933 Год назад

Tubular A arms but got to have the factory original steering box.

Nice small belt grinder. Perfect for small patch. Hmmmm would a course disk grinder work better then dress up with belt sander?

@edwardsilva895 Год назад

Thats a restomod......with all those changes? RESTOMOD

@jeffpara9113 Год назад

So....why is he concerned with the steering box being all original, but the suspension, brakes, and judging by the oil pan and balancer - the engine isn't original? Its funny what some people worry about.

@thehemiolds455 Год назад

Right my thoughts to .

@1966pontiacpower Год назад

I’d assume the guy was less worried about “original” look and more worried about the junk aftermarket boxes these days. But that’s a guess. I myself am tired of the replacement parts these days and try to buy original NOS when I can.
