Top Welded 3

Adding the finishing touches to the Upper Link Mounts.







When we last left off I had the upper link tabs welded to the housing along with the back crown piece. The next step was to finish it off by boxing in the upper link tabs and the crown piece to the axle. By doing this it steps the level of rigitity up to the next level by adding not only what is essentialy a top 'truss' but also more support for the link tabs.
