The moment of truth... swapping the rear ends 😬

We're ready to swap the rear end with the new one we just picked up from the junkyard. The chassis has been mocked up with the original rear end welded in place. We're hoping everything will be the same once we do the swap.... Once we remove the rear end, we'll be able to finish the c-notch fabrication. We'll also be able to straighten out the rear of the chassis where it's still twisted. The roof chop will be continued after we deal with the chassis. So stay tuned 😬 BONUS episode • Straightening the chas... 🎬

His table is probably flat enough to work off of and doesn't wrack when rolled to another spot in the shop although I doubt they checked. But the point here is that he isn't building a frame, he's modifying an existing frame with a twist/warp/wrack that they never took the time to find and fix. The problem was compounded by going ahead with the work while holding it down against its will. Slicing the frame and stomping down the back corner didn't correct it either--just brought that point down into plane. This is probably good enough providing that slice is welded correctly, but the process was flawed from the start.

Hi all, My first comment but watched a lot of the videos I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the roof with great interest hope all goes well.

[@slickdogo]

Im not trying to be a know it all but the front of the frame was not level. The bubble was riding the line. The table has to be level before you can use a level on the frame. Honestly all those cross braces would have to come off to fix it right. Love the show just wanted to throw my 2 sense out there. 😂

[@fonhollohan2908]

It's official as far as I'm concerned Chad doesn't have a bloody clue what the hell he's doing, when it comes to straightening a car's frame. I was a licensed welder fitter for most of my life. I've seen shady work in my time but I must admit this takes the cake. First of all align the car frame up to so that the car frame is square and level to the chassis jig, if necessary use a couple bessey clamps to clamp down both rails to the rear of the frame, to the chassis jig at least do that much! before boxing in the frame for heaven's sakes man. You don't weld thing up while their still misaligned and then align it afterwards, that's just nuts, first align the frame then weld it up. simple common sense, should tell ya that much!

[@martyhabada6980]

I think the front of the frame still is the problem

[@travlite8496]

Jolene make sure you have a harness and helmet on when you race this if it hit's the wall it will wrinkle up like a piece of tin foil.

[@ROBByJONEs-2]

now chassis is upside down welded to table [33 mins] you NEED to add second x brace directly under trhe first one then plate both together. otherwise chassis will continue to flex warp.the factory brace was strong enough to not warp. you halved it because you only saw easy building floor you completely forgot about warp/flex . fit second xbrace then plate them both together

Chad, you got this , frame is all abt perspective

[@tomebel7149]

I agree with all who are saying he should have leveled and squared the frame before boxing and structure. Said that in the first episode on the frame. Having said that Chad makes himself happy building "art" cars, not "drivers". My concern is others might follow his lead on things like this.

You would have saved yourselves a lot of unnecessary work if you had squared the chassis before boxing and fitting the cross brace. Sure what would i know, only been fixing salvage cars for 30 yesrs 😂

[@bava67]

Just wondering… it looks to me that those motor mounts are way too high. The driveshaft should go under the X braces. When the front of the frame got Z’d, that in turn raised the mounts up.

[@parkerlich5617]

No need to weld frame to table; C-Clamps could do the job just fine.

[@RobertScheibel]

When doing a100% penetration weld if you can you should weld up. That way gravity will make the weld thicker and stronger.

[@rixpix311]

The best way to get a full penetration weld is bevel the edges...

If Chads chassis table is flat and square (and I presume it is) 7:59 then it doesn’t matter whether the car is built on the flat or on an angle- ie with the frame vertical. Many many manufacturers build vehicles vertically especially one off racing cars as it takes up less space in the shop and workers aare standing up.

[@robertrabhudsonhornet5869]

It would be fullish if you don't put a used or new cover on that rear end being that it has a pin hole then all round that pin hole it's going to be very thin metal and it's not going to take long it will rust more in that area and it will start leaking badly. Say you go for a ride and it starts leaking a lot your not going to know it your driving and you hear a big bang and the back tires stopped turning you get out of the car and go look at the back of the car and you see differential cover dripping out gear oil and the car won't move so now you have to have the car towed home now you have to replace the pig in the rear end if it's a pig trip. So a lot of work money and time it's going to take you to fix all you had to do is replace the cover when you was building the car

[@davidlee2838]

I'm still surprised at all the negative comments. Is there some kind of happiness or superiority that comes from being negative? Why not just flip to one of the other 40 million channels that build cars in a way that you agree with. Kinda like the little ankle biter dogs who run up to the big dog and then scurry away just as quickly. Mr. Hiltz builds stuff the way most of us do. With what we have and what we can do. Only difference is his stuff comes out much better than ours. A bit of kindness costs nothing and goes a long way and you never go wrong by shutting the Hell up.
