Today I fitted my custom front axle so I could wheel the wreck outta my garage so I could finish cutting it....




Once outside out come the 9" again and then the back fell off, this time with no fire!!!



Then the front fell off....




Just waiting to for the tow truck now to take away whats left....

My guess is the front crossmember is being welded into the rear section to make a trailer?

Cheers
Steve

I am keeping the front to use as a template for making some better brackets for my ARB front bar, I don't like the way it only attaches right near the front member unlike the factory bars that attach further along the chassis rails.

The rear is to make my rear ARB bar project easier, I can weld and grind away on it instead of on my own car and once I get it right I can just bolt it all up to mine.
I also have an idea that I want to explore with airbags, a bolt in subframe and a truss arrangement so I can flip it upside down to work on in the garage which is better than laying on my back on the creeper.....


No not a trailer project Steve....
