Suspension work continues

Saturday I spent the day at a friend's shop, John, from 90 Inclusive. He was nice enough to lend me his spring compressor which I used to remove the springs from the rusty parts car struts, sorry, no pics. I then cut them up to use as new center sections on our current struts.

Once everything was cut, and the surfaces prepped, I was ready to weld them together.

John took a quick snapshot of me using his Tig to weld the new collar on the strut housing. I forgot to take pics of the finished pieces, but I will upload some this week.
