I only thought this would be a simple cut and weld. Don't get me wrong, it has to be done accurately and carefully.

You guys just are telling me that it could come with other issues such as alignment, driveability and possibly handling issues that I've never had.

And I appreciate it, like I said I'm a rookie.
If anything, I've learned lots here tonight from a couple of experienced guys.

Not that simple, you may want to do a bit of studying on front suspension and geometry issues. Many things come into consideration besides just keeping the tire in the wheel well.... I've played with designing my own suspension systems for 20 years, and sometimes I almost understand it all!!!!!

kool, you can get a real good leg up on suspension geometry by reading the Carroll Smith book Tune To Win. He is the only person who was able to bring it all together for me years ago when I was trying to figure it out.

Credentials? He was the crew chief for Ford Motor Co when they beat Ferrari to win at LeMans. Good enough for me!!!!

He authored other books, but Tune To Win is the one to read.....

You might think you know a little something until you read this guy!!!!!!!
