[QUOTE="airblazer, post: 184100, member: 6648"] I am expecting to find more cracks once I get it blasted down to bare metal. I had my neighbor do the seat latch area repair from the top because I knew it wouldn’t be visible, I just don’t have a pic of the finished job. With regard to the shock mount, it’s a solid bar inserted through the frame and welded/reinforced with those 90 degree plates that the seat rests on, correct? I don’t know how I’d get enough leverage to pull/push down on the mount bar without threatening the threads, especially without a frame stand. Speaking of stands, has anyone here made their own engine stand? If anyone has a template, dimensions or measurements they used to create the mounting plate & holes that would be much appreciated. My neighbor is interested in helping more with this project and making a stand would put his welding skills to good use. [/QUOTE]
