Hi all..
I managed to get the rear window sill on today...
I panel bonded/spot welded the rear lip and panel bonded and plug welded the top as I por 15ed the underside and I dont want to destroy taking off to spot weld..
I sanded off where the spot welder is welding on the bottom lip and Zinc primed..
While fitting the boot lid I discovered that the rear beaver has been pushed in... As you can see with the pics of the beaver.. The gold one is undamaged and is out more with a gental curve.. Not so the Lj black one, in the pic of the inner boot lip, you can see it curves in..
Oh no I though...
I rang the owner and he said "yes, it had had a hit at one stage in its life".. Explains heaps..
I contacted my panel beater mate and he said no probs as he can pull out... But you will have to fit the boot lid to align...
Phew.. Easy fix.. so I continued with the job.
Gaps on the side and top turned out good....
Ill gring off the plugs later.
Its on now.. and rust free .
While i was waiting for the panel bond to dry, I took off the rear drip rails.. Lots of rust as you can see. Typical rust spot on ALL toranas.
I also did a small youtube of me spot welding the sill on.. Notice the smoke comming out due to welding through the panel bond.
Mike
