Hi guys, is it a good idea to have the car on a chassis jig when cutting out sills and other rust repairs in the general area of the sills? Anyone got any photos or drawings for a jig that you would like to share. Im thinking of about knee height for the jig, anyone think it should be a bit higher?

If you are replacing anything structural (turrett, sills or guards) you would be wise to support the body of the vehicle so it doesn't sag and stuff up the gaps.

if the car is on a roto that mounts on the front bumper holes and rear chassis close to the back i'd would take it off this if you're going to cutout the floor and sills.

lc/ljs flex ALOT when these panels are cutout, you will get alignment probs when welding in the replacement panels.

Once these panels are properly tacked in place it can go back up on the roto.
