Some weld through primer would be good on the panels

Man the TD engines has such a nostalgic sound for me, my dad (rip) used to drive an 1990 D21 with the NA TD27 and man I got such good memoried with that truck, right now is sitting in our warehouse waiting for new cylinder head

@sweetrider34 10 ай бұрын

just a tip! when ever welding a plate or metal on metal, make sure to clean/prep and paint the under surface with a weld through primer , that bare metal that's now exposed under the metal is prone to potential rusting even if fully welded, its good practice! other then that, its looking good!

@RoamLyfe 10 ай бұрын

I actually have been looking for some weld through for ages!! Do you think the sikkaflex will help if I fully seal it?

@harro9447 10 ай бұрын

@@RoamLyfe Definitely seal it but the main issue is condensation behind the plate which is bound to happen with temperature changes then rust will set in I have seen it on a few cars

@andrewt3952 10 ай бұрын

Weld through primer is a must

@sweetrider34 10 ай бұрын

Yeah I would, sikkaflex will get into all the weld crevices to help seal it the best it can, just make sure you apply and press it in over the welds

Just wondering about the welding, are you supposed to fully weld or leave a gap to allow flex

@RoamLyfe 10 ай бұрын

You’re supposed to fully weld as it stops the dirt sitting being the plate, alternatively you could weld sections and seam seal the rest!

@Suitmyselff 10 ай бұрын

Do you have to brace the inside of the chassis as-well? or is the outside sufficient enough, been looking into doing mine at some stage!

@RoamLyfe 10 ай бұрын

Oh my last Ute I did the inside as well, I think it’s worth doing on a rusty looking chassis but if your chassis is in good condition I’d say just the outer would be enough!

@@RoamLyfe thanks man. I was doing some reading. Many shops up them to 130psi. Need to advance the pump a smidge to compensate. Maybe that’s why you had to wind yours forward a little. Apparently better fuel atomisation and efficiency. Keen for the build!
