Tacked the lcas together, made the mounts, and test-fit to the frame. It still needs to be properly aligned before b eing welded on.

The arms can be adjusted for caster and trackwidth/camber. As the joints are threaded out the mount point does increase in length so different track widths will require different spacers.

Excited that its starting to resemble a car.

You’ve definitely inspired me, but I’ve already got too many projects and skills I’m trying to learn to take up metalwork right now.

I think the old orange ones tend to predate the recall.  I bought my sets of orange HF jack stands over the late 90s and early 00s.
