FOX-Body rear sub-frame
I have a 90 coupe that has alot of damage done to the drivers side rear torque box and aswell as the floor pan that this attaches to.
It has alot of cracks throughout and just seeing if this could be repaired easily.I have a mig welder but pretty sure this is way out of align,and beyond my ability.
if i can get some insight on what to do that would be great!
PS if there is any local welders that do sidejobs,i now have car on stands and ready for repair
Thanks

What you can do is take measurements from the good side,and compare how bad the otherside is out.Providing the other side isn't bad,or way out aswell,but it can give you a rough idea anyways to get you on your way.
Are you get a new torque box kit,and floor pan section?....,or just adding your own sheet metal?

I do have the torque box repair kit aswell as MM sfc,and MM lower control arms and FRPP lowers that was suppose to be installed, but i am not much of a welder tho,but i also have a gas mig welder. would like to have someone do the welding locally or in my garage.

Seeing that you got the stuff,why not give a few practice runs on some scrap,then go to town yourself on your stang.No one will be more pickier then you!

You can do it yourself. Just make sure that you clean the welding area throughly most peolpe try to weld through paint and rust or seal sealer. This always leads to poor results. Only weld on shiny freshly ground steel and it will turn out great.
