But I'm curious, to those that do these modifications for a living or whatever, what price range would this kind of work (4 link back half)cost if the car was dropped off at a shop, not including rear end, brakes?
I am not sure what the shop cost would be, but I remember reading not too long ago that a shop was charging 3-4,000 for the backhalf conversion. I think it might have been on Yellowbullet.com, but not sure what part of the country it was in. The price seems to vary a huge amount based on location (at least with the cost of Cage labor).
I am curious as well what shops would charge for the conversion alone.
Thanks for the constructive comments on the tacking. I will be doing that with the rest of the build.
R5p7: I am assuming you mean that welding vertical down is a no-no?? I thought that I read that is the way to do a vertical weld. Please advise...I don;t want to compromise penetration or strength . Also, do you weave a joint like that or straight stich? I did a slight weave on these.
