In this part, How i made the frame narrower.
The frame needs to get a "Bypass" to make room for the 16" travel Air-shocks.If i didn't do this i would have to limit the travel of the rear axle and that wouldn't be an option in this build.
First i need to get rid of a piece that was used to create a position for the old leafspring mount.
The part is removed and can only be found on a LWB Zuk.
Cleaning the frame where it's going to be cut.
This is the 100x50x3 boxsection cut at a 2×22,5 degree angle which makes 45 degrees in total
The position it's going to be in.
Removed a crossmember, It was only there to attach the stock shocks to.
Both sides clamped in place to mark the frame for the cuts.
Frame cut from the bottom first, Then i welded a angle iron to both ends of the frame to keep the length of the frame in his orginal size.
Bypass piece clamped in place with a little help of a boxsection to keep it all nice and straight.
One side done, just the tag welds.
The other side, still with the angle iron on it to keep the distance.
