just wondering wat the go is with welding to the chasey?

if a plate gets welded to the chasey and and then the sliders get bolted to the threaded plate is this legal?

any info on this would be great, as they are getting done tomorow

cheers josh

department of transport is a f@#*en nightmare to deal with. I had to put mine thru the pits in QLD last year. They didnt look twice at my sliders. They have 100x100mm square plate about 12mm thick, Have tapped a thred and bolted the slider to the plates. Seems pretty strong and didnt have any legal probs.

MyGQ us in NSW - QLD do not have engineering.

go around the chassis. Plenty of pics around. Search seems to be broken at the moment, but look back a few pages and in Gen Tech. Even check the bibles.
