I dont think they drill holes in the front end around the suspension, there you just reinforce the welds by adding 2cm long welds in an alternating pattern. Only around windows and doors do you drill holes.

Well, after following some of your advises, I have some new pics:
Next step: sandblasting the rear axle, sway bars and some more stuff to get it painted. Is it advisable to sand blast the driveshaft? Best regards |

Looking good apardal, love the icecubes So did it work as good as they say?
What do you mean sandblast the driveshaft? You mean the thing between your gearbox and rear axle? I wouldn't, I'm not sure how sandblasting and painting it will influence it but these things are balanced to keep vibrations down. Maybe after sandblasting and painting you should get it balanced again just in case.. Or just leave it alone, I painted my rear axle and nobody sees it anyways Greetz, Bastiaan "mux213" Olij Moved down under, no more hachi |

mux213, dry ice works perfectly, although a bit expensive... 20kg are 60€.
When i say sand blast the drive shaft, yes, it is between the gearbox and rear axle. When i was washing it, its paint started to come off and as it is dirty and rusty, sand blasting came to my thought. I guess the cleaner the better... I doubt it is balanced dirty and rusty as it is, or that if I clean it, it will get unbalanced. Best regards |
