Carl's 98 auto AWD project Black Magic

[carltalon]

I tacked up the tubular core suport today. I made the lower radiator mounts from some lifting hooks we take off of engines at work and made some mounts for the a/c condensor. I am going to bring it to my Dads to weld it up with his MIG and drill the holes that will mount the North/South crossmember that runs under the motor/trans. Im not sure what I am going to do for FMIC mounts since I plan on upgradeing my Intercooler before spring.

Picture 6 explains to me why you tackled this project!

Yeah it had previously been reinforced by a piece of angle iron but it was still pretty sketchy. I could have riped the drivers side radiator mount off with my hand. even with it only being tacked in place the radiator was way more solid then before.
