Jac, Looks like you are doing it right. I check in regularly on your progress. I am in the final stages of a frame replacement on my Lightweight. Drop me an E-Mail if you have any questions. jamet07@hotmail.com

^^What did you do about the shims used between the rear tub and the chassis? Mine had shims, but they basically disintegrated when I took the rear tub off. I was going to make some up if needed, but I'm wondering what to expect as far as alignment issues.

The ones that I had were in decent shape so I cleaned them up and painted them w/POR 15. I haven't done a final fit on the tub yet because my doors arent quite finished so I havent used them yet. As far as yours disintegrating I don't think they would be too hard to make. If you need one for a pattern I can send you one. I would definitely use a differant material though.

Both halves of the rear driveshaft are all rebuilt & ready for reassembly...just waiting for the paint to fully dry. I'm probably spending way too much time on detailing all this stuff, but:
