Just bought half an sj, the other half was victim of the rust demon, thought it was time i learnt to weld! A few pics of my progress so far, not the neatest of jobs but it should be strong.

nice work, looks like you learnt to weld pretty well. are you going to put any bracing under that rear floor to prevent sagging and vibrations?

Hi and welcome.

Looks tidy. As said that floor will probably rattle and vibrate a lot without bracing. Unless its sat straight on the rubbers on the chassis but even then it will vibrate.
