Frame connector question

[truckinman466]

All of the body is mostly together. No drive train or suspension. I have it on dolly wheels bolted at the K frame holes and on front spring hanger. I can get it high enough to put them in from underneath. Will I be ok to do this now?

When I added my chassis bracing, the car was apart and the bare chassis was just sitting on my lift arms.  I did not measure to see if it was square.  I used a plasma cutter to fit the SFCs to the floor.  It made the job go a lot faster.  Once everything was fitted close, I turned up the wire feed and did it from underneath.  Be careful to wear long gloves that cover your sleeves and arms so you don't get slag dripping down your arms.  I did the radiator support and shock tower braces too.  Now when I'm driving, I have no squeaks and rattles, and the car feels super solid.  Much much different than when it was stock.  The alignment shop had no problems aligning the front.  I also had the rear aligned by using the spacers at the front leaf spring hanger to make it more square.  It didn't need much.  Remember that these cars were built with huge tolerances back in the day.  You would have to be way off course to make it drive crooked.

Thanks Jordan, that's what I wanted to hear. I want to put them and torque boxes in now so I can paint it all.
