filled in what didn't look right on the rear x-memeber
got the front axle totally out ... that thing is fawked
put the LCA mount back in place. i put an 18" crescent wrench on it, feet on the frame, didn't move. found a more persuasive way to move it. right after that jack clicked into place, i looked over and the weld on the bracket was exactly in place. i couldn't have held it in place any better. once i finished welding it, i put the LCA back in place and damn if it didn't fall exactly in place just like the drivers side. i'm stoked.

this weekend i pick up the new windshield frame and pass door and another set of front fenders, then next week my dad will be in town and is guna help me with the body work.
i need the $$ to buy some more parts, that's really the only thing slowing me down right now. if i could sell my Banshee i'd be way better off, and if someone would just smash up another one, or swap up to better axles so i could get a used axle. i REALLY don't wana hit up the steelership for an axle ...
