wtf? no weld battle boxes? wheres the link?

I had something similar from Wild Rides. No need to weld them in, but it wouldn't hurt.

Jeff, did you paint those parts silver? You always have to cut the '94-'04 lower torque box openings to get those parts in. Doesn't look like you 'clearanced' the spare tire well. That pop is probably from a slight binding-up of the control arms or just a little movement. Don't get me wrong, the install looks good. Just trying to help. Can't wait to see how it runs.

How do you clearance the spare tire well?

How do you clearance the spare tire well?

If the axle isn't installed in the car, use the good ol' BFH. You can use the same technique, but hitting the axle cover is much more liable to be damaged. If not clearanced, the rear axle girdle will make it's own room.

Oh, you call that clearancing the spare tire well. Now I get it. I took a BFH to it as well when I did mine. Note the mc hammered post lol!

I didn't yet. It is pretty flimsy metal so I will just tap it with a ball pien hammer some day. There is still a good bit or room when the car is on jack stands to get in there with a hammer.

Good deal. It's better than listening to the rear axle girdle slamming into it. I had that happen on my old Stang. Left a nice impression of the T/A Girdle in the metal. I thought that it might have broken something, but those girdles are tough!

Boy these brakes are moaning like a hoe when backing up. I have to see if the anti moan brackets will work with my brake brackets.

Looks good Jeff!

+1 on the BFH to the spare tire well. Mine was poping too and I beat the shit out of it and no more pop!
