No, he hasn't seen it yet. Yeah it's still a little crusty under there, but I've seen 5 year old Chevy trucks around here that are worse.
Doesn’t look that bad @Potomus Pete, also, its still a work in progress.Has the previous owner seen the fox?? Its still a little rusty under there.
I've heard good things about the 2k urethane primer Summit racing sells under their name, I will probably try some for my next at home project.
Yes, but there is a little wiggle room from the factory.Did your k member bolt up ok?
Well, it's update time.
I need to put another disclaimer here.
It seems the new edge frame rails aren't the direct replacement I thought they were. When I fixed my car I only used the passenger side, I ended up shipping the drivers side to @Mustang5L5 to repair his rusty rail. He discovered that the mounting holes for the k-member are about 1/2 inch too far forward, my car was so rotted that I had nothing to compare to. After seeing his post, I checked my car, it looks like my right front wheel is about 3/8 inch forward of the left one, my car hasn't been on the alignment rack yet, but I will have to deal with this eventually, you would typically want the right front ahead some to compensate for road crown, but not that much.
Mustang5l5 has a good solution for his car, its on page 182 of this thread https://www.stangnet.com/mustang-fo...-frame-rail-using-donor-piece.758796/page-182. My fix will probably be to slot the holes on the k-member, not exactly ideal, but I'm not cutting my car back apart.
Anyhow, I just wanted to put this here in case someone is thinking of going this route to repair a fox. I still think this is good repair option, it just will require a little more fabrication work than I originally thought.
Soon, very soon.When will those p heads get going Gravy.
Not a whole lot, just been enjoying it this summer. I drive it almost every day, it hasn't given me a bit of trouble, and gets a lot of attention, seems like everyone knew someone that had one back in the day.Whats up with the car Gravydog
